Red light slipping into yellow
Tones everything it touches mellow
Through the windowpane, it peeps
O’er the windowsill, it creeps
A welcome in the room it fills
Contrasts with the seeping chills
That this autumnal time of year does bring

I have always wanted a stained glass window. Maybe someday… Your words make me want one now though…..

That would be glorious. I have crystals hanging in my window. But it’s only the hall, cos that’s all that gets direct sun. Still, in the mornings, it’s fantastic. Enchanting.

I thank you. Although I choose the photos, I seldom know what I’m going to write. And I looked and I looked and… I was walking across town, to the supermarket, when the poem formed.

Lovely Crispina! I love the way the light becomes a living thing, peeping and creeping.

Your poem describes autumn so well, my favourite season. Where I live, though, there are no red and yellow hues in the trees. Most are evergreen. But when some tiny brown leaves fall with a breeze, they look beautiful. Have you seen autumn Cherry blossom? They look stunning.

Yes, I have, and yes, they do. And while across the Atlantic everyone talks of autumn, and autumn colours, in UK our trees are barely turning. A few yellow leaves, is all. Autumn comes late to us, after colliding with Christmas

With some trees it happens quickly, with other so slow you don’t realise until, wow, what was green is now copper. Though some few shrubs turn purple.

I have seen some shrubs who are “born” purple. They look great as well.

I have some cherry trees growing near me, they have purple leaves too. Ornamental, not native.
