Fall and Winter are my favorite seasons, and October is quickly making room for the coming cold of November and beyond. This was taken just outside my front door. Happy Fall and Winter everyone!

let go the summer days

the buzzing evening songs

and the corn so high

and proud

just embrace crispy leaves

the cedar scented sweater

it’s raining yellow

orange and red

dear cold rose

rest beneath

a wintry blanket

the dark cold days

just a bridge

to that wondrous

moment

then Spring

winter’s way is passing

Winter Barns

winter’s way is passing

empty barns stand sure

quiet stories ‘neath the trees

whispered tales

forgotten days

beneath the cold

faith will grow

faith must grow

Winter Barns

winter’s way is passing

come and grow with me

time is sliding past our door

tears are melting

restored are dreams

beneath the cold

hope will grow

hope must grow

     winter’s way is passing

     come and sing with me

     fill the days with melody

     i’m yours alone

Winter Barns

Winter Barns

our hearts are one

beneath the cold

love will grow

love must grow

The Falls vs Chris

This is the last image from a hiking trip that I took with my son to Matthiessen Park. At first I told him to not climb up to the falls... then I followed him!

Bridge and Stairs

As promised, here is a wide shot of the steps that I perviously posted. We live in the plains of the midwest, s this park is fun to go to because it's streams, waterfalls, trees and canyons offer a welcome contrasts to the endless miles of corn and soybean fields - which also have their own beauty... just lots of it!

Matthiessen Stairs

This is the second shot from a hike that I took with my son this past Sunday. You will see these stairs in their "context" in another post.
