In Autumn …

Season has changed its clothes.

Likewise, weather has embraced different moods.

A row of down jackets. And a row of boots. All silently await for their owners.

Your steps by the front door are suddenly stopped as nature eagerly greets you. A sleepy head is awakened when gentle cold breezes land a kiss on your cold cheeks.

Blown by cold winds, a red maple leaf gracefully fell down on a cold ground while a mother and a child snuggled on a big couch reading “All Falling Down.”

When sun is on the horizon, window blinds are pulled up high to welcome sun rays in our living room.The warmth of sun on a chilly day is like baked cookies fresh from the oven.

The sky darkens by late afternoons as sun sleeps early in the winter.

The warm of comfort foods invite everybody to the table while gentle rains pour down from the dark sky. Rain drops gleefully gather in puddles preparing sweet surprises for little feet in rain-boots.

This is our third Autumn in British Columbia. Each year has never been the same as nature seems always to have its own surprises.

Some were anticipated, some were not. But still, we are fond of the memories.

As the weekend is near close, wishing you all a pleasant weekend.

Hope all is well and God Bless.

PS. The song on this YouTube is “The Autumn Leaves” by Paula Cole. Somebody told me it is NOT Diana Krall. Big Ops. Sorry for the confusion.
