THE MAGIC OF AUTUMN by Fran Hafey
Do you feel it, that crisp feeling in the air as the autumn winds
reach out and lightly touch our senses? There's magic in the air
as Mother earth paints beautiful scenes of colors all around us.
Nights are cooler, so I pull out the blankets, hanging them out
on the clothesline to freshen them before placing them on each
bed.
Pumpkins appear at farmers markets while baskets of apples are
sold to merchants wanting to make apple butter and pies.
The last of the hummingbirds come and go to the feeder seemingly
saying goodbye for another season. They will return in the spring
when it's warmer to bless us with their beauty.
The afternoon sun shines in my south window onto my crystals
causing them to shine all around the room making little rainbows
and dancing colors.
I wash my favorite sweater, the one that makes me feel so
comfortable and warm on the cool afternoons and chilly nights,
even if it is old and worn.
Soon there will be frost on the windows and you'll be able to see
your breath as you walk through the trees and autumn pathways.
I watch the wind dance with a leaf, twirling and turning it with
grace.
Sipping hot chocolate is soo good in the morning while I watch
the birds play and the deer slowly leave the garden area where
they look for leftover morsels.
I love the feel of autumn magic and I am happy to be reminded of
the miracles of life, as I watch the Seasons come and go. I close
my eyes and feel the cool air on my face and thank Spirit once
again, for sharing the magic of autumn with me once more.
