Morning Sunlight

Morning sunlight

Under the cool autumn breeze

I resist waking

A lovely autumn morning in Seattle. Blue skies, mostly white clouds, though there are a few darker ones. The demands of my day finally rouse me. My tea welcomes me back to life.

Here is my contribution to the Word of the Day Challenge. Today’s word is “wave”. Having spent so much of my life near the ocean, this is the first place my mind went. I did think a bit about writing about physics, but, well, I decided oceans were more lovely.

The First Day Of Autumn

holding back the dawn 

grey skies resisting sunlight

grace of rain soaked leaves

It’s a classic Seattle autumn morning. One that I delight in. I hope your autumn is off to a good start.
