Early Autumn Glory (Diptych)

I went to the woods yesterday and, no, I didn't find any teddybears having a picnic, but I found this, the most glorious golden light shimmering through the trees. I love the colours in the autumn and the wonderful light, even though it always reminds me that winter is coming and that summer is over. :-( 

I love the woods and the serenity that can be found in the wind making the leaves rustle and the smells wafting from the ground with each step you take and the light that shines through the trees like some benevolent spirit. :-) Sorry. I get carried away sometimes.

The image was taken this week at the park. I lvoed the wonderful golden leaves of the beech trees, especially as a lot of the other leafy trees are still green. The poem came to me yesterday when I woke up, hence the title. My mind seems to be very active when I am asleep which explains why I am always so tired in the mornings. LOL

the many nights
that found the morning light
glittering on my cheeks
like shards of glass
and my heart
running through my fingers
into the ocean of
might-have-been
and never-will-be

Ever been lying on your back in the grass looking up at the sky counting glouds? That's what I thought about with this image.

Regrets

I feel so inspired by the wonderful autumn/winter light and the contrast of the bare branches and the little colour left in the remaining leaves and fruit against clear crisp sky.
