A walk around the lake early this morning...hello June



I'd rather be a forest than a street.
Yes I would.
If I could,
I surely would.
 I'd rather feel the earth beneath my feet,
Yes I would.
If I only could,
I surely would.

Good morning October...

Last night our harvest moon traveled just along the tree line
and lit up the sky until early this morning.
It was full a few days ago but apparently because of
the earth's tilt at this time of year, the moon will seem full for about 3 nights.
I'm up before the sun and after a mug of tea I take my camera
down to the lake with Griffin...
It's only us and the birds to witness the dawn...
It's a gift, precious.
To be in this landscape with my eyes, healthy and beholding such beauty
and stillness...
But the stillness is deceiving...the light slowly moves,
the sun begins her accent over the lake...
Dark, swimming shadows come forth from the depths...
(it's only Griffin though!)
And with the sun touching the water, the mist becomes
a paintbrush and a masterpiece is born...
So I believe the fall has officially come to lower herself upon us.
Embracing the seasons change with
chilly fingers, sweaters and boots, dusky mornings.
Good morning October...
