Autumn Canvas: Haiku by Bette A. Stevens

Aside

AUTUMN CANVAS

autumn-canvas-haiku-bas-2016Three cheers for autumn! The season never ceases to amaze me and this year’s foliage has been spectacular. Today (Twelve days after taking the photo for Autumn Canvas) storm clouds are brewing and snow may be on its way, but I’ve captured enough spectacular photographs to inspire me for many a day.  Hope you enjoy the view from Central Maine that inspired me to write this haiku. ~ Bette A. Stevens, Maine author

    Beautiful photo and lovely haiku. Autumn in your neck of the woods must be thoroughly spectacular. I hope you get to enjoy a few more days before those storm clouds bring snow! 🙂

      Thanks for your encouraging words, Mae. The season has been spectacular, indeed. Rain turning to a snow-mix today–first of the season. Perfect weather for reading a good book. Wishing you a spectacular weekend! 🙂 ❤

        We had rain today but no snow mix yet. I’m so not ready for that, but book-reading is one plus when the cold and wet rolls in. Hope your weekend has been fab! 🙂

      Hi, MIcki. Thanks for the visit, the ‘love’ and the view. Expecting our first snow tonight… Yikes. Never a dull moment up here in God’s Country. Most of the garden is in and the cars of resting comfortably under their cover. Sending lots of love your way and a great big hug too! 🙂 ❤
