The moth is full and wooly which they say will show that the winter will be harsh and the snow will swirl around us too soon it may seem.
But for now I enjoy the cool breath of the wind upon my cheek that brushes my hair softly across my eyes as I enjoy the remaining green.
Soon enough the brilliant colors of autumn will fill the land as the leaves give us their annual beauty pageant competing with the falling sun.
The sunlight as it slowly slides below the horizon seems to catch the leaves full of fire as though they together are one.
My friends in the far north tell me of the beauty of the Aurora as it dances through the sky in a symphony of light each night.
I have not seen that symphony but I have seen the one that surrounds us with brilliant light as the leaves dance on the wind and it is a beautiful sight.
The falling leaves fill the ground with their colors which quickly fade so they must be enjoyed at the moment as you see them fall from the tree.
Catching them at the moment where they fall in the wind and fill the air with beauty takes my breath away and my heart feels so free.
Each season has its own special beauty but Autumn has always captured my heart in its own special way because it seems to fulfill the destiny of the land.
The brilliant colors are singing their symphony to show us that they have beauty as they fall before they turn dull and gray and fade away as only they can.
Love Always, AJE enjoy your last day of summer for 2007.

I love your poem. Thank you for sharing, I'm glad to have you as my bubbler friend.
I saw the Aurora just recently. It was the first time I had seen it. It was unbelieveably beautiful, gleaming, shimmering, sparkling, changing form and color. Hard to describe. We went to my daughters school for an evening of music and had to stop on the way just to watch it, almost wished we didn't have to go inside. We stopped again after the show and watched some more. It was amazing.
If you ever get a chance to see it, take your time... it's worth every moment!
Glad to see you here. Enjoy all the beauty that surrounds you today.
