The Land of Melting Shadows: Autumn Blessings

The Land of Melting Shadows

There once was a land, no further away than your imagination. A Land where the Trees’ whispers can be heard on the wind. And the squirrels chitter and chatter as they scamper to and fro amongst the branches - playing their endless game of tag.

A Land where the Brooks babble endlessly amid fern covered banks. Fish and Tadpoles play a game of Leapfrog in the clear, cool water and Turtles sunbathe nearby.

A Land where the tall Grasses sway in the breeze as if dancing to a distant tune. Wild flowers wave their petals at the busy Bees who fly by; Beckoning to them. Enticing them.

A Land where the Deer graze peacefully in the lush, green valleys. A Land where the Birds and the Faeries gather in the bushes of an evening to share the day's gossip. And the Frog serenade, with Cricket accompaniment, continues well into the night.

A Land where the morning sun melts the night into the shadows of the day. And at sunset the shadows melt into night. But there are times when the shadows melt into things best left to one’s imagination.

A Land of Melting Shadows.

Autumn Blessings

My Daughter and I celebrated the first day of Autumn by going to one of the local parks and having a picnic with the children.

This park is only a few minutes from the house and one of the Denver area's nicest.

It is very family friendly with a gorgeous lake, a babbling brook, and several playground areas for kids of all ages and sizes.

We fed the ducks and geese.

Climbed on enchanted mushrooms.

And had a wonderful time enjoying the beautiful Autumn day.

May Autumn bless you with an abundance of joy and love, family and friends.
