While you are here, take a look at the post below as well. You might like to consider the works of Washington Irving as good autumn reading. The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Rip Van Winkle and other stories are perfect.
No one travels
Along this way but I,
This autumn evening.
Along this way but I,
This autumn evening.
by Matsuo Basho
The shallows-
a crane’s thighs splashed
in cool waves.
Matsuo Basho
The summer grasses
All that remains
Of brave soldiers dreams
Matsuo Basho
Autumn begins...
Water doesn't care

Water doesn't care
if moss changes colors!
Thought for the day:
Notice how universities and news sites push diversity in everything except thought?
Hello Annie, I sure enjoyed the photos and quotes today!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed it Mary!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos. I love autumn. Yes, I've noticed the universities and the news take on diversity. Distressing.
ReplyDeleteI love your fall decor, especially the header. I like the picture of the crane too. I saw one once at an industrial park lake. I thought maybe it was a sign that someone was having a baby. Turned out it was my daughter. Yes I agree with your thought for the day.
ReplyDeleteExcellent quote at the end. Yes! Love this post with your poetry and photos!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I love these photos and the Haiku...so appropriate! And yes, the quote at the end...so very, sadly true. Young people are now being told how to think and act in today's "society", and they are not encouraged to have independent thoughts, especially if they happen to lean toward anything conservative. So sad.
