Autumn

Another beautiful day today - sunshine, a fresh breeze, Sunday, peacefulness. Years ago Sundays were my least-liked day of the week. Now they're my favourite. Funny how things change, so gently sometimes that we're not even aware it's happening.

Autumn is almost through now, just a few leaves left on trees. It's kind of hard to believe that winter is just around the corner when things feels so warm and bright. The calm before the storm maybe. Change . . . . it's not my strong hand.

Byrds - Turn, Turn, Turn

To everything, turn, turn, turn.
There is a season, turn, turn, turn.
And a time to every purpose under heaven.
A time to be born, a time to die.
A time to plant, a time to reap.
A time to kill, a time to heal.
A time to laugh, a time to weep.

To everything, turn, turn, turn.
There is a season, turn, turn, turn.
And a time to every purpose under heaven.
A time to build up, a time to break down.
A time to dance, a time to mourn.
A time to cast away stones.
A time to gather stones together.

To everything, turn, turn, turn.
There is a season, turn, turn, turn.
And a time to every purpose under heaven.
A time of love, a time of hate.
A time of war, a time of peace.
A time you may embrace.
A time to refrain from embracing.

To everything, turn, turn, turn.
There is a season, turn, turn, turn.
And a time to every purpose under heaven.
A time to gain, a time to lose.
A time to rend, a time to sow.
A time for love, a time for hate.
A time for peace, I swear it's not too late.
