October arrived yesterday.
The day began in calm and soothing grey.
the fog gave way to sunshine,brilliant benevolent beauty
For after all, it isn't what we keep that makes us happy.
It is what we give away.
So October gave gladly and blithely,
crisp apples.... and pears.
invitations to important occasions
(wedding invitation in back)
my lavender has done well...
fall decor...
Hearts were bolstered by it's generosity.
Courage came to stay, for whatever lay beyond October.

ReplyDeleteLovely photos of October's arrival and all it bountiful beauty! Of course, the best decorating is done by a woman who knows her craft well - Mother Nature and all her eye-catching accessories!
