I love nostalgia (must be getting older!). I'm not a house decorator or pumpkin putter outer. I let the surrounding trees and birds do it for me. I love the colors and smells in your haibun and the haiku's last line...gratitude abounds. Yes it does.

Our fall days in the city of Boston are a bit different from those we spent for so many years in Iowa. But I take walks in the Commons and Public Gardens, enjoying the tree colors and buy a pumpkin for our deck (7th floor in a high rise) and hang a beautiful fall wreath on our door -- even though our door is at the end of a long corridor of doors that lead into other city condos. I like to think of it as "making the seasons" in our city life :)lillianthehomepoet.wordpress.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12664830773553716989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-156773205591631053.post-90436009778034818772017-09-05T07:36:54.733-07:002017-09-05T07:36:54.733-07:00So happy you brought up Ecclesiastes in this, Beve...So happy you brought up Ecclesiastes in this, Beverly, for it (and the Byrds version of it) always reminded me of the change in seasons, specifically Summer to Autumn.
