Haiku My Heart Friday - Falling

DSC00327

Ch…ch…ch…changes…

My only choice is to fall.

Ah, but the ride down…

************************************

It is a rainy, windy, grey day in NH.

I love how those colorful leaves bring light in spite of the gloom.

Kind of like the bright hearts that shine in spite of the scary, hard, gross stuff in the world…

I am more excited than I can express about seeing Patti tomorrow. We have been in touch and it looks like we may have a bit of extra time together above and beyond her speaking engagement. Yay !!!! Talk about getting your world rocked… ;)

(Check out this post on her blog – my rocks are going to be a little part of the book tour. They look awesome !)

And then some sweet couple’s time with my man, exploring new places and holding hands and stuff…

Looks like it’s going to be a good one !

Have a great weekend, Beautiful Ones. I hope yours is just as far away from gloomy !

Big Fall Love !

    Gorgeous shot of the leaf - your new birthday camera, I assume?! It is time to get all introspective, take stock of what we have done this past growing season, made even more poignant and navel-gazing by having a birthday at this time of year. It's all good (eventually).

    Big Fall Love to you, too!! Great haiku. It reminds me of what a real autumn season should be like...although I'm liking the South Florida air lately (meaning there's no humidity, and that's a good thing!). Happy Weekend! Have fun!!

    Your Haiku fits me perfectly right now as I am slowly falling down from my sugar high of this afternoons gluttony of gelato! LOL
    Have a wonderful time with Patti.
