Happy Autumn! My Fav Time of Year

Autumn, my fav time of year is finally on the way, after another VERY dry summer here on Vancouver Island.

The air is cooler at night already (back to deep sleeping!!) and hopefully some much needed rain will finally be on the way soon.

I am adding some new Autumn Kindle book promos at my writing site today too. Click here for all the details.

Happy Autumn, Reading and Cooking Too!

Haiku Reflections: Warped Beauty

warped beauty

I took a day off from the computer yesterday and was out and about.

Noted several “warped beauties” along the way, similar to the photo above.

It seems that every year, the transition from summer to seasonal fall temperatures, becomes longer.

In Canada where we do still have four distinct seasons, it’s not a good thing to see flowers lingering well into the late fall. 😦

What is the weather doing where you are?

Are you noting signs of the effects of  global warming in the plants and flowers around your area?

A Trio for Autumn, from Haiku Reflections

image003

Gold. Orange. Green. Brown. Red.

Maple leaves in every shade.

Season of splendour. 

˜  

Light through the trees.

Scent of wood fires burning.

Time to close my book.

˜ 

Heading back to school.

Kids laughing! Such carefree days.

Autumn ritual.

PS: One of the MANY things I love about eBooks is being able to add some color and photos, without the added cost as in print books. I think it adds to the presentation and enjoyment of any book.

When I recently created a Kindle version of my haiku book: Haiku Reflections, I added seasonal photos for each section. The Autumn one is featured above. The three poems are also from Haiku Reflections.

Wishing you a wonderful weekend. I hope you have some amazing colors to enjoy already, wherever you are! 🙂

Nothing much for colored foliage here in BC yet. 😦 Hopefully soon.

Haiku Reflections: Autumn, It’s In the Air!

Another photo/ haiku I recently noted, while tidying up my photo files.

I think it’s fun to “dig” through the archives and come up with past “gems”. 😉 Don’t you?

Happy Wednesday! 🙂
