What Remains

As I was sitting here reading the news early this morning, listening to some wake up music, hoping that it's sounds wouldn't drift up the stairs and into my sleeping son's ears to wake him, I looked out the window when the sun came up to see no wind, just perfect stillness, and a spectacular sunrise. Purple almost. Just what my soul was in need of today.

My trees that were full of leaves two days ago are empty now. Fall is ending. I'm sad to see it go.
