Fall has always been my favorite season. The time when everything bursts with its last beauty, as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale.
ā Lauren DeStefano
It's always sad to see that summer is over, however the beauty of Fall more than makes up for it. Sweater weather, warm comfy socks, toasted marshmallow infused hot chocolate and long, long walks enjoying the grand display of trees changing from green to an incredible range of yellows, red and orange.
Nature never disappoints... Enjoy the quotes below that highlight the beauty of autumn, the simple joys in every day life and the hope that lingers at the end of each day.
ššš It's Autumn! ššš
And all the lives we ever lived and all the lives to be are full of trees and changing leaves.
ā Virginia Woolf
I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as autumnal sunshine by staying in the house. So I have spent almost all the daylight hours in the open air.
ā Nathaniel Hawthorne
Listen! The wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves,
We have had our summer evenings, now for October eves!
ā Humbert Wolfe
And I rose
In rainy autumn
And walked abroad in a shower of all my days...
ā Dylan Thomas
AUTUMNAL
Pale amber sunlight falls across
The reddening October trees,
That hardly sway before a breeze
As soft as summer: summer's loss
Seems little, dear! on days like these.
Let misty autumn be our part!
The twilight of the year is sweet:
Where shadow and the darkness meet
Our love, a twilight of the heart
Eludes a little time's deceit.
Are we not better and at home
In dreamful Autumn, we who deem
No harvest joy is worth a dream?
A little while and night shall come,
A little while, then, let us dream.
Beyond the pearled horizons lie
Winter and night: awaiting these
We garner this poor hour of ease,
Until love turn from us and die
Beneath the drear November trees.
ā Ernest Dowson
