and with it the passing of the dusty greens of late summer. At first they are replaced by autumn’s radiant display of hues.
This season of ever shortening days and longer nights requires a sorting down, a retention of bare essentials.

Their hosts tuck themselves down for a long, restorative rest in order to enable their triumphant emergence, once again, come that forever hopeful spring.
Be like that.
