“Truly great friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.”
“Home is a place you grow up wanting to leave, and grow old wanting to get back to”
~ John Ed Pearce ~
Go, sit upon the lofty hill,
And turn your eyes around,
Where waving woods and waters wild
Do hymn an autumn sound.
The summer sun is faint on them
The summer flowers depart
Sit still -- as all transform'd to stone,
Except your musing heart.
~Elizabeth Barrett Browning~
A fallen leaf is nothing more
than a summers wave good bye
Pumpkins in the cornfields
Gold among the brown
Leaves of rust and scarlet
Trembling slowly down
Birds that travel southward
Lovely time to play
Nothing is as pleasant
As an autumn day!
“Summer ends, and Autumn comes, and he who would have it otherwise would have high tide always and a full moon every night”
~ Hal Borland ~
Sing a song of seasons!
Something bright in all!
Flowers in the summer,
Fires in the fall!
"Even if something is left undone, everyone must take time to sit still and watch the leaves turn."
~ Elizabeth Lawrence ~
“The home should be the treasure chest of living.”
~ Le Corbusier ~
"I've never met a pumpkin I didn't like"
"There is no season when such pleasant and sunny spots may be lighted on, and produce so pleasant an effect on
the feelings, as now"
~ Nathaniel Hawthorne~
"October's the month
When the smallest breeze
Gives us a shower
Of autumn leaves.
Bonfires and pumpkins,
Leaves sailing down -
October is red
And golden and brown."
Don't waste a minute not being happy. If one window closes, run to the next window- or break down a door.
~Brooke Shields ~
Nature holds the key to our aesthetic, intellectual,
cognitive, and even spiritual satisfaction.
~ Edward O. Wilson ~
The poetry of the earth is never dead.
~John Keats~
Nature fills me with beauty, peace, solace, and celebration.

"Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves."
~John Muir~
“the year's last, loveliest smile.”
~ William C. Bryant ~

"To find the universal elements enough; to find the air and water exhilarating; to be refreshed by a morning walk or a evening saunter ... to be thrilled by the stars at night; to be elated over a birds nest or a wildflower in spring - these are some of the rewards of the simple life."
~ John Burroughs ~
Come and hear the tambourine
Come and join the dance!
Spinning silks in shades of light
Velvet dark as shadowed night.
Gold and silver buy your future
Pasteboard cards with faded ink.
Caravans by campfire glow
Keeping secrets gypsies know
"Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls”
~ Joseph Campbell ~
“ Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams.
~ Ashley Smith ~
I would whisper love so loudly
Every heart could understand
That love and only love
Can join the tribes of man
I would give my heart's desire
So that you might see
The first step is to realize
That it all begins with you and me
"Yellow mellow, ripened days... Beauteous, golden Autumn days."
~ Will Carleton ~
No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace
as I have seen in one autumnal face
~ John Donne ~
The golden moments in the stream of life rush past us and we see nothing but sand; the angels come to visit us, and we only know them when they are gone.
~George Elliot~
Autumn is a time of harvest
Reflection
Release
Rest
Anticipation.
"How beautifully the leaves grow old. How full of light and color their last days."
~John Burroughs~
