AUTUMN DARKNESS~

Autumn darkness...
As evening unfolds and the day is at its end the shadows of the stark countryside reveal itself... temperatures have remained cool...ideal conditions for this day... a day devoted to yard work...leaves "crunch" as squirrels scampered about...vocal hens begged to be let out of their confines...an indoor kitty finds her way in uncharted outdoor territory...it is a day for tying up loose ends...all to soon  evening nears...  we are ready for  the warmth of our home...a wood fire awaits, a candle shines brightly in the window... we pause, look up to the noise coming from  the sky...a "V" formation of Canadian geese fly overhead...goodbye they say...offering us a fond Autumn farewell...
