Feeling October
Though it is not time yet, October has me wrapped in a cool embrace. Fallen leaves crunch underfoot, outside. The light…the light changed ages ago. It seems like a lifetime has passed since I was with my family and loved ones, at the beach. Closer, but still far away: a happy Autumn. It has been a while since one of those. I never felt the melancholy in the change of light, the change of season. I feel it now.
