Autumn Leaves Magic
"Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower."
~ Albert Camus
The world has been bursting with oranges, reds, and golden hues on my Wonder Walks recently. Here are a few of the recent treasures. What treasures have you been discovering around you recently?
“October, baptize me with leaves! Swaddle me in corduroy and nurse me with split pea soup. October, tuck tiny candy bars in my pockets and carve my smile into a thousand pumpkins. O autumn! O teakettle! O grace!” ~ Rainbow Rowell
"Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree."
- Emily Brontë
"Fall has always been my favorite season. The time when everything bursts with its last beauty, as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale."
- Lauren Destefano
https://kasinopuhelinlasku.com crossed my mind when you mentioned the burst of oranges and reds on your walks, though honestly what stuck with me was the Rainbow Rowell quote about being swaddled in corduroy and nursed with split pea soup. I've been collecting horse chestnuts with my kids lately, and there's something about that small ritual that makes the season feel less like it's passing and more like it's being kept. Your point about everything bursting with its last beauty before winter is the part I keep turning over in my head.
