The view from my bedroom early one morning this week.............
We have enjoyed reading and doing this together this week...........
We have enjoyed reading and doing this together this week...........
Gathering Leaves
In Autumn the falling leaves
Run races on the paths,
Tumble head over heels
And catch against the tufts of grass.
I gather them in a heap
With a stiff brush and a rake,
Though they are light as feathers
And do their best to escape.
Then I splash right into the heap
And the leaves wash over me
With a long swishing sound
Like a wave of the sea

ReplyDeleteIt is that morning it was particularly stunning, early morning sun!
Delete...a sight for sore eyes... lovely view you have.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend
xo
Thank you and you!
DeleteWhat an amazing view! Glad you enjoyed doing what the poem says, sounds fun.
ReplyDeleteIt is I am lucky. Playing in the leaves is such fun we will have weeks of it to enjoy provided it stays dry when they are wet it is just not the same!
DeleteOh wow what a stunning view! Have a lovely weekend:)
ReplyDeleteIt is especially the sun at this time of year, the vegetation is normally brownish but when the sun catches it as it rises it turns a beautiful golden colour. It only lasts for a few minutes so I love it when I open the curtains at that exact moment :)
DeleteYou too... great shot!
ReplyDeleteFabulous view!
ReplyDeleteIt is, I could never tire of it :)
DeleteWhat a stunning view. Hope you are enjoying your weekend.
ReplyDeleteIt is, I had a similar view from my bedroom as a child. I love to watch the subtle changes in the seasons from here. I often find my children on the bed just watching out the window. I am enjoying my weekend, hope you are too!
DeleteWhat a beautiful view. It's just this past week that I've noticed the leaves beginning to fall. I have a Silver Birch in my front garden and already the drive is full of leaves.
ReplyDeleteThey will just keep coming.......
Deletebeautiful words and a spectacular view :)
ReplyDeleteThank you, it is a never tire of it :)

DeleteWow to waking up to that every morning! Just lovely!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful words, thank you for sharing. xo
It's not that orangey colour every morning, just when the sun comes up, but the view is always there ;)
DeleteWow what a stunning view! Great poem too.
ReplyDeleteIt is, I never tire of it :)
DeleteThat is a breathtaking view and must look quite different as the year and weather changes. By the by, do you read Soulemama or Beauty that Moves?
ReplyDeleteWelcome Lucille :). It does look quite different during the year, often we cannot see it at all for the cloud and/or mist ;). I have heard of both those blogs but have never read either of them.
