The Journey of Autumn ~ Pure afternoon delight

Autumn afternoon delight is taking a walk down your street and staring at the blue of the sky

It is driving down an unfamiliar road and finding beauty there you'd never noticed

It's breathing deeply the cool crisp air and knowing there is no better time of day

It is pure happiness that you find within yourself that only the right surroundings can give you

It's the sound of the late afternoon birds calling to one another from the golden trees

It's wanting to sit under a tree with a book of poetry and dreaming of taking the road less travelled

It's appreciating the last rays of the sun's warmth before the chill of winter takes over

It is realising that all that falls, like the leaves from a tree is not lost and will return with warmer days, light from the sun and a brighter season of happiness.

There is beauty in every corner of the Earth and the world around you, you just have to know where to look and know how to appreciate it.
