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
