Gorgeous Weather and a Haiku
Autumn Light and Words….
….and a ???

Now, I can’t remember the name of that particular poetry form.
Any ideas?
Whatever it is, I hope you enjoy this encore!
PS: I found the answer, right after I wrote this post, 😉 it’s called, Tau-Ku, you can read more about this type of poetry HERE.
Wishing You a Wonderful Week!
The Autumn Leaves (haiku, movie and song) :-)
This is a reblog of an autumn post (from 2015) that I hope you enjoy.
A song and a movie that still comes to mind, this time of year. So haunting and beautiful.
I hope you enjoy my haiku and photo too.😊
The unpacking continues here. We have now given away over 120 boxes of clothing, household items,books… to charity, so slowly but surely, making progress.
And today, we are setting up my office complete with new laptop and printer, yipee!
🍁🌾 Happy Week and Happy Autumn!🍂🍁
I ♥ movies from the 40s and 50s!
We were watching a Joan Crawford movie last night: Humoresque (so sad but wonderful) and this haiku and archive post came to mind.
The Autumn Leaves is a song that I often have running through my mind, especially this time of year. As I mention in this post, it was also a Nat King Cole tune, that my beloved Grandma cherished.
And the movie of the same name is also one that I have never forgotten.Quite a “racy” film for its time (1956) and definitely with some disturbing content.
But, if you are a fan of Joan Crawford and/or movies from the 40s/50s like I am, do check this one out.
It also features a young and oh, so handsome Cliff Robertson. Also starring, Lorne Greene in a role that is far removed from his later, fatherly…

Motivational Monday: Keep Positivity on Your Side
A reblog from Genki Kitty’s blog, to share this thoughtful and inspiring post.
I hope it adds a smile to your day. 🙂
There are times in our lives when we feel down and against the world. Whether it be a gain in weight while on a diet, fitness goals unmet, problems with a relationship or even problems with our career, you will have times in your life when things aren’t perfect. So what is a person to do when everything seems to be falling out of place and nothing seems to be helping out of the hole of despair? Well, as a Christian I want to say follow up with more prayers and give thanksgiving for all the blessings we have in life.
