Your opening line is the stuff of envy, "I woke this morning to a crisp autumn morning. I walked for over an hour, beside the sea, along the streets of my town."

Your morning walks sound wonderful.

And you reminded me again of the importance of perspective. While I'm getting ready for Spring in the USA, not all are. So often I only think about MY world and you remind me that in Australia, you are bracing for winter as fall is coming to an end. Thanks for your post. You have a new fan.Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01323825577167758104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915339669985059502.post-37631002984770565112015-03-23T01:17:36.228+11:002015-03-23T01:17:36.228+11:00What gorgeous pictures.

I do wonder if it's the feel of it after so much heat, or the color, although we've had flowers all the spring and summer long? You make me want to hurry on to autumn, Alan! Your poem is lovely, and I love this line "I hear it in the whisper of leaves".

Perhaps, you would like to peruse the Finding Fall Gallery, a global expression of the season in poetry and photos from writers around the globe: http://beyondliteracylink.blogspot.com/2014/12/finding-fall-gallery-is-here-with.html.<br /><br />I am now working on designing the Gallery of Winter Whisperings and wondering whether you might want to offer your poem with a photo to show how we are experiencing winter in the states while you are immersed in fall.Carol Varsalonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02589714711155938528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915339669985059502.post-28545813150961423122015-03-22T23:30:15.491+11:002015-03-22T23:30:15.491+11:00Love the line about winter lurking in the shadows....Love the line about winter lurking in the shadows.
