Palette of the Day

Lorna



Running outdoors to rake gold

And tidy it in piles

All yellows today

The Sun himself, the Master,

Sketches in the corners

With his inspired hand

Adding sometimes a touch of red

In a garden bed

While I work

    ....... If I half close my eyes and focus .. I can see the picture you paint .. perfectly clear ... it seems the pond aint so wide after all .....

    • Lorna

      Believe me Neville when I say I wake up everyday thinking I'm in England........ or Scotland, or even Wales........ anywhere but here.............. but actually Connecticut is lovely. Thank you for seeing it!

      Love the inventive imagery you use in this gem of a write Lorna - - - I was at this myself only a day ago and reveled in the golds and reds.

      • Lorna

        You know I was wondering if the Cornish coast boasted a lot of color in Fall - I keep seeing the sea and cliffs in my mind........ now I know!

        • ANGELA & BRIAN

          HI LORNA - Angela Here - Love Ne w England in the Fall & Connecticut - What a State to be in & enjoy the Fall Colour. We are in Essex - Old England - but with Climate Change our leaves are staying on longer when they change from green to yellow to ornge to red to Brown. Some Americans say *The Fall Colours in Old England are nearly as good as in the New !* Although the UK has 200 times less Forest than the USA. The sheer scale of the Aspens in Colorado in the Fall leaves us all breathless. Thanks for sharing the Video - good background music - reminded me a bit of John Denvers - Country Roads. Thanks for sharing !

          Blessisgs & Peace to You & Yours
          Love Angela& Brian & Smokey Cat ! ! !

            Love your thoughts Angela......... now concentrate on making sure Trump doesn't cut everything down...... aspens an all.........

            I can see those leaves and the wondrous colours that your words have given to us Lorna.
