Late September lays a gentle hand upon the earth, easing life into predestined cycles.
---G. Hill
September shows us how beautiful it is to let things go.
-----Samuel Butler
Before it lets go, the autumn leaf twists and turns until September's gentle hand escorts it to its soft landing.

Are we any less?
Take my yoke upon you and learn of me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
-----Matthew 11: 29-30
Gentleness is strength under control. It is the ability to stay calm, however strong the winds, and no matter what happens.
―-- Elizabeth George
Worthy of Repeating . . . The eagle molts a feather because he is growing a better one. — Elbert Hubbard
Gloria as always gorgeous pictures and wonderful wisdom – I really like this one!! thank you!
I love the Sept- Oct period. The colors, the chill, arriving at a warm house are all just great.
Yes, I agree. The change of seasons, nature’s cycles are always a welcome comfort.
Gloria, I always love your work. It’s a sumptuous blend of thoughts, poetry, Scripture, art, really great blend.
Bill, What a nice thing to say. I truly appreciate your thoughts. If I am breathing, then I am writing. And I do like the creative process, even with images. I use AI quite a bit. Be well. Gloria
