One Single Impression


"GOLD" is the prompt and I immediately thought of the color changes of fall. I just happened to be watching the season finale of "Project Runway" when this came into my mind. LOL

Today


Fall has snuck up

on my summer collection

revealing shades of change.


Hues of gold, orange and red

move in perfect form

as the breeze moves by.


I can be found nestled

in a cocoon of covers

too warm to expose


a limb, as I remember

where I had stored

my sweats and slippers


so I can strut down

the hallway to enjoy

the new fall collection.

Oh, Tammy,
I'm so thankful for you and your beautiful words (and music). Your writing continually keeps me in awe, you seem intuitively know exactly what to write that is do right on target and evokes such emotions.

Love this and love you.

Tammy, I visit you today from a friend "your friend & mine" Annie.

How could I not visit someone so dear to her heart like you are.......You must hold a very special place here on earth to be loved by so many as you are.

Your Autumn will be beautiful as we step into spring and summer but that is good to know because your autumn will remind me as my spring will remind you that another season is waiting for us "just around the world" from were we stand.

I am here holding your hand and just giving it a squeeze now and again to tell you there are many of us out here thinking of you!

I will visit you again I am sure I must stay long enough to hear ALL your lovely tunes.....

I loved the feeling of laying snuggled in bed and that first cool morning, wondering where your slippers and sweats are?

Great poem--thanks!

Lovely!
Fall does that to a person, doesn't it? I couldn't make myself get out from under the quilts this morning. I would like to be standing in the middle of that photo.
