Dawn breaks with a melancholy beauty
before the latest storm moves through.
We tipped over our swivel chairs
so they would stop spinning in the latest gale.
From my living room shelter I photographed the storm;
a reflection of our fire burns in the chair.
In between squalls, sea gulls swirl and dance
before flocking again to the water.
The golden leaves have taken a seat ...
... and the last of pink blooms sift to a stone bench.
Fish are sheltered ...
... and Buddha and bunny snuggle through it all.
Have a peaceful day

ReplyDeleteTime to contemplate your next visit to Sedona! It will be worth the wait...
ReplyDeleteBuck up, little soldier - it won't last forever (although I know it will feel that way). I love that even with all the gloom, you can find some spots of color. I particularly like the photo of the bench filled with leaves and the green cast of the Buddha. As for the deck chairs - I never thought about them spinning in the wind. I would think that would be quite entertaining!
ReplyDeleteStay warm snuggled close to that fire...
So sad to see this beautiful time of the year come to an end....but I guess the snow is pretty too! As long as the sun shines and the snow stays below 6 inches!
