with a light gray rain falling today
there's a gentle first hint of fall in the air
a certain stillness hangs lightly
as the days get a little shorter
and all of the green loosens its hold
slipping into whispers of yellows and reds
i love this quiet time just before the explosion of fall color
there's a certain dreaminess
as summer drifts into memory

Last night was the first night I felt fall at my side. There was a clean crisp feeling that I love and cardigans were born for.

fall is coming, no doubt. it is my favorite time of the year...you would think that spring would be (though it's a close second).
