autumn – Rivers Renewed

In the Brightness of the Autumn Sun

In the brightness of the autumn sun I can sometimes see

through the thinnest of veils,

where time and peace hold a sacred space,

and where I have the beautiful honor

of writing it all down.

Autumn Meditation II

A warm light filled me, as I watched the sunlight dancing

in the maple tree.

God never spoke, and yet I knew

autumn was always meant,

to draw us closer.

Autumn Still Speaks

Autumn still speaks to the heart willing

forming shapes of poems within,

and wordflow

filled with light.

Autumn Meditation

In my meditations, the wind was moving softly through the trees

speaking quietly of sacred space, so I lifted my heart

receiving in return…. the shape of a poem,

and a heart filled

with peace.

Blogging and Comments

Well I leave comments sometimes because your posts are so beautiful! I hope you enjoy posting as much as I do reading them.

Each day or each post, you encourage and uplift, or provoke us to think about topics in an amazing way! Your writing, your photography, your artwork are incredible.

Hey Nico, what about travel posts on Portugal? Absolutely! It’s my favorite place I’ve never been to. Not yet anyway. Book reviews? Yes!! Send them my way.

And I try to be positive because we all need more positivity and good thoughts in our lives. Have you ever read some encouraging comments and they made your day? I try to do that.

I have been encouraged many times over the years, and I seek to pay it forward. Giving what I have received.

Ain’t that so cool?

Thank you so much for reading!

Happy Autumn!

The Intensity of Autumn

The intensity of autumn with the softness of the sun,

with the coolness of the air,

were always meant to inspire,

to refresh our spirits,

moving us

forward.

Mountain Morning

It was sunny and crisp in the mountains this morning,

in the sacred silence,

I found a way

to walk softly

upon the Earth.

Autumn Photography

Many of you know about my other hobby, which is photography. I have a new camara! I’m still learning my new digital Canon, but I’m so looking forward to this autumn and trying it out!

This is my favorite time of year, and hopefully we will all be able to be safely outdoors as more people get vaccinated. Wahoo!

In the meantime, I have thousands of photos here on my site, so if you see fall colors they are temporarily from previous years.

I’m currently making room on my site for new material. My goal is to share more photography here and have fewer words. I’m not really a six-word story type of person, but future posts may be similar.

Please do not use or copy my photos without permission.

Thank you so much for reading!

Peace.

Heart Songs Ascending

So many phrases from our heart songs ascending,

poems sparkle in the woodland sun

and the colors,

are only just beginning.

Only a Thin Veil Remains

Only a thin veil remains My Love, as the sun brings warmth in the morning,

a curtain of light covering over our summer dreams,

only to reveal yellow roses in the garden,

where you and I are refreshed

by the crisp, cool air.
