It is now officially fall and the trees are starting to show signs of it. Won't be long and we can go for a ride in the country and around town. Found some poems I'd like to share."Indian Summer"
by Luella Carr
Now is the perfect time of year, Loveliest to behold, When birches wear heart-shaped bangles of purest minted gold; When poplars are laden with dollars, more than I ever could spend.
And the slow -moving river before me that creeps around the bend, Is covered with coins of gold and silver that glitter before my eyes, afloat on the rippling water and of every imaginable size.
The mountain ash wear copper, bronze are the leaves of the oak. Around me the magic of color as if the whole world spoke. Saying, "Take of my beauty, Cheriish it, keep it until the dull days of winter are over, and gone is winter's chill."
I also read this poem and after last week I realize how comforting to have a happy, God filled , loving HOME.
"HOME"
by Esther Randall
No other place on earth can be so filled with heart's fidelitiy, and warmed with good and fine desire as HOME, when lit with true heart's fire.
No other place can be so dear, so full of charm, delight and cheer, as HOME, when those within it strive to keep it nourished and alive.
No other place was ever found more free and yet securely bound than HOME, whose members all unite in love for harmony and right.
No other place as good to start right growing of the mind and heart; No other place like HOME, to blesss HIS name and show deep thankfulness.
Thanks for another day.

I love fall also. It is my favorite. Glad you are home and all is going well.
Hope you are not over-doing it!
I second it! There are tons of maples here and it was a very good year for color...well still is!
So glad you are back home Grandma. We were gone helping a lady move when you skyped the other day. I will try to call you back sometime soon!
We also are enjoying beautiful falls days and harvest is in FULL swing here too - farmers are crazy at this time of the year!!!
