Sunday Thoughts

Sunday Thoughts

As I sit in my chair

Lap blanket tucked in tight against the fall chill

I gaze out into the woods

At oaks and beaches still dressed in ochers and deep reds

Their branches sharing the sky with with trees now bare

The desire to walk among the trees is sharp and strong

I will let my mind take me where my legs cannot

My eyes take in the wonder of color and form

And as my imagination wanders through the forest

I will inhale the fragrance of a changing season
