“I am rich today with autumn’s gold,
All that my covetous hands can hold;
Frost-painted leaves and goldenrod,
A goldfinch on a milkweed pod,
Huge golden pumpkins in the field
With heaps of corn from a bounteous yield,
Golden apples heavy on the trees
Rivaling those of Hesperides,
Golden rays of balmy sunshine spread
Over all like butter on warm bread;
And the harvest moon will this night unfold
The streams running full of molten gold.
Oh, who could find a dearth of bliss
With autumn glory such as this!”
– Gladys Harp
The weekend is almost here and I hope to enjoy the Autumn Glory to it’s fullest. I rarely make a To Do list for things I want to do… but here it is:
- Watch the Utes win their football game!
- Pick pumpkins.
- Rake the leaves.
- Visit the Witches at Gardener Village.
- Create a ghost out of an old sheet out on the front lawn.
- Walk along a crunchy path with a canopy of Autumn leaves over my head.
I hope you all have a great weekend. Cheers, Calli
