October Sunlight.


All week the sun shone.
And the air was still.


And we savoured the warmth,
before the winds come.

And we'll have something to remember when the leaves are gone,
those moments when the light caught us and spun us a web.

And let us pause and look and marvel.

And we'll take this with us, a little memory of warmth in our hearts,
to carry us through the winter.

Lovely October light. I can see the stillness.

Here, bright blue skies, cold, with a raucous wind. Edward's favourite.

That delicious ochre you've captured so beautifully. Inviting... velvety like a warm saffron custard... light you want to eat with a spoon.

*sigh*
