I enjoyed your lighthearted autumnal poetical musings, Cynthia. It was just what I needed today! Yes, this time of year is every bit as busy as spring. I am still way behind on autumn chores down here. 🙂
First-time visitor. Thanks for the light-hearted view of autumn – well, and the work that goes with it. Before moving to a condo, my leaf season work was a 6-8 week ordeal. Seeing this is early November, I know I would have 4-5 weeks to go.
Autumn certainly comes with its chores. Putting fall tasks in a poetic frame looks good.
I just took off some last plants yesterday. I still have fresh tomatoes and Bell peppers. I think you posted also making preserves for winter. I did some, too. Got short of jars.
I hope you are safe and everything is fine at your place!
The wind storm, following Hurricane Eta, blew all the leaves off from our trees (as well as bringing 4 trees down along our road). Winter is here. Happy Thanksgiving – Oscar
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Oscar! We Canadians have ours in early October but we have many friends like you in the US and tons of relatives celebrating Thanksgiving today. Stay safe and well and enjoy dinner.
Very cute and very true.
Festive fall fun!

I enjoyed your poem! I can laugh ’cause my husband is the one who has to contend with the autumnal tasks. 😉
I love the line in the poem ‘ you put up with one and you end up with many’
Fun and so true!
I love autumn colors. We have a maple tree in the front yard. I don’t mind the leaves. 🙂
It takes me almost two full months to clean up all the leaves where I work, so you might be lucky!

I hear you! It’s a long haul. Thanks for visiting.
My pleasure … and thanks for the warm greeting.
I love it, Cynthia! Wishes for a great autumn season.
The maple trees offer their splendor in the fall but also much work.
Beautiful and realist poem, Cynthia
Love <3

Thank you, Michel.
Ha! Brilliant, Cynthia! I love this <3
How lovely! I find myself enjoying the fall more and more every year. 🙂

You’ve been on a roll with the vegetables and preserves! Way to go, Inese!
