72 micro-seasons 53

Helen...

 Blencathra. Morning’s
Woolly clouds pulled down over 
Your Saddleback ears.

Janey ...

A beauteous day -
'travel forth without my cloak'
still seems unwise though 😊

Janey...

On these wildest days
the summer calm seems a dream,
the longing for rain...


Helen...

Damp shoes, creeping cold,
Sky heavy and white with rain,
Rinsing coloured leaves.

Janey...

The dry ditch awakes
as lonely puddles lengthen,
reflecting
shadows
(from Alistair 😊)

Helen...

First frosts of autumn 
Come gently, silvering grass,
Sharpening blue air.

Janey...

A friendship restored,
misunderstandings redeemed - 
suddenly sunshine 💛


Helen...

Riverside cafe:
People talk, drink coffee while
The leaves are turning.

Janey...

Icy north winds
give way to wild westerlies -
Oh, 
Aberystwyth 💙


Helen...

Caught between seasons
Sun still warm on our backs but
Wind whispers of cold.

72 micro-seasons 48...

Janey...

Sun, October gold,
nasturtiums and pink fuschia 
complete my palette


Helen...
Dawn’s transforming light
Turns the village red and gold
And then melts away.

Janey ...

Three things:
A crisp autumn breeze,
smiles lighting strangers' faces,
the full moon tide's roar

Helen...

Topsy turvy times.
Sunday: cold, wet, glowering 
Monday: hot bright sun
