The fall

I hiked for hours in the woods today.  The leaves were spectacular, and though there were rather a lot of people there, i found moments were i was alone.  I could stop, put my hand to ground and inhale the damp softness of  the forest in fall. It was some of the only peace i have found in recent weeks. 

As much as i enjoyed being alone, i missed you. 

 What i would have given to feel your fingers entwined with mine, to share the warmth of the fall sun with you.

Je t'aime, beauté... les couleurs d'automne ne se comparent pas à tes yeux.
