Tinge in the Air
Tinge in the Air
31/08/2022 by juliabbb
The change is happening.
Summer is growing old, Autumn is softly creeping in.
While the air is still hot, there’s an undercurrent of change. The promise of coolness under the heat, whispered by the wind. Summer is losing its bite.
The leaves are feeling it, a sudden blush emerging from their edges, spreading inward, a beautiful progression to a slow, but spectacular, death.
The waters grow cooler in night temperatures even as Summer makes a last, mighty, futile, effort to hold on with warm days. The ice bides its time.
The veil thins between worlds. The unknown presses in whether you believe or not, reminding us of our mortality, an inevitable end, and what lies beyond.
Autumn is sobering beauty. Nature’s reminder to make it meaningful.
Welcome.
