Mid August Folly

To a Visitor it would seem 
Autumn has made her arrival
A true mask of deception

Crisp russet yellowed leaves
Litter the expanse of the lawn
Mixed with needles of fir & cones of pine

Blue sky is a dusky cloud
Dry Saharan dust
An illusion of overcast cooler breezes

100 heat dissipates the mosquitos
No longer being a meal as I venture out
Delights me so

Tis this Texas Summer without rain!

  2. It sounds like Autumn is on its way around your neck of the woods, Holly. It's still hot here, but there are breezes in the mornings now, and I'm looking forward to my favorite season. I like this picture, and what a sight it must be for you to get birds at your feeder.
