Autumn is my favorite season

No, matter what anyone says Autumn is my favorite season, just the right coolness, love the transitory nature and plenty of pumpkins which I buy so often all through out the year. One doesn't suffer such intense heat. One starts back school which I love. One still visits the beach with way much coolness. I was born in the season of Autumn.

Returning Autumn

Kathleen Raine 1908-2003


All creatures passionate for grace

Quest their desire through the groves and seas

That flesh may win a human face,

And pain be crowned with holiness.



And lovers out of present days

Float back upon the body’s dream

Of a green branch that drips and sways,

Caught in the current of a stream

Autumn

Kathleen Raine



Leaf-FALL,

And the long –for missed again

Between the coming and the gone;

Yet, in the tree’s thinning leaves crown

In this faded year-worn scrawl,

Blade’s blot, bare stoke of petiole

Wind-tattered on the ragged sky

Stands ciphered still.

Ukulele is the trend

I have seen lots of girls playing ukulele there at the mall or especially in school. If the instrument seems unique I give it a try. Maybe this place one day will be like Hawaii? well not too much, but the ukulele is a great small instrument and you can bring it anywhere especially in travel even smaller than the mandolin, I hope this trend continues: makes me inspired to play mine!
