Grey clouds, gusty winds,
waves splashing over the road -
        two ducks on the pond.

Cloudy, thirty-four,
wind gusts twenty to thirty,
      rain - and snow!   Say what?!

 Green leaves turning red

 fall to cover the front lawn -

        autumn's new carpet.

                  or

        new autumn carpet. 

 

Not sure which I like best. 

Pink tinge this morning
suggests some small rain today -
      but no major storm.

5:00 - seems to be holding true.

 

Bonus haiku -

Long day of flying
home from two weeks east coast cruise -
       doing homey things(1).

(1) making our own meals, cleaning up after ourselves, sleeping in [and making up] our own bed, and so on....

 What about Oct 31?

Seasick - went to bed 

Yes, Lord,
when the saints go marching in,
from every nation and tribe,
every people and language,
in their robes washed white in the blood of the lamb,
singing "Salvation belongs to God and to the Lamb" -
Yes, I want to be in that number
when the saints go marching in!

Art in Savannah,

 Kalil Gibran self portrait -

        who would have thunk it?

 

Savannah has the largest collection of Gibran's work in the country.
