I love the cool weather and the beauty of fall. Although I do find as I get older (or am I just getting crabby-old?) that I can't think of fall without thinking of what follows, and I'm *not* a fan of bitter cold and loads of snow. (Don't ask me why I live in the midwest ... I have no idea.) :D <br /><br />Karen Edmisten https://www.blogger.com/profile/04446214835142625161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17019672.post-89603008412732578172019-09-20T18:41:35.201-05:002019-09-20T18:41:35.201-05:00Autumn is my favorite season.

I always look forward to fall, it does seem strange that it officially starts on Monday since we've had hot weather all along . . . and yet there is that sadness that comes with thoughts of another year passing so quickly.jamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07859083373087448194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17019672.post-31215120131394083432019-09-20T12:07:16.105-05:002019-09-20T12:07:16.105-05:00Thanks, Linda!

I love the way you did your introduction, and the poem, too. You are one of the few who wrote of autumn coming, and it is here Monday, in all its different ways of beauty. Thanks for this poem!Linda Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14983144542632353870noreply@blogger.com
