Fall came to visit today…
Reminding me what the soft rain sounds like…
as it replenishes our gardens, clears the smoke
from the wild fires and refreshes our world.
I turned on the heat, for the first time in months…
Walked into the kitchen and smiled this evening
as I felt the forced hot air on my feet escaping
from the vent under the cabinets.
I remembered how much I loved feeling that heat
on cold winter mornings as I would
place the tea kettle on the stove.
I’m bundled up in my fleece and sweat pants.
A far cry from the short sleeve shirts and shorts
that became my summer uniform.
To top it off, I found a pumpkin spice tea bag
in the cabinet. The tea is steeping now…
Decided to do a quick sketch then
took the time to call my Bubbe.
Catching up with an hour phone call.
Life IS Good!
