Did you hear it? Did you see?
What hides amongst clothed trees
Wind whipped branches striped of leaves
Let’s us peek through unclothed trees
Near the ground out of sight Ready for a long cold night

One last leaf swirling round – CAUGHT
GAIA'S HEARTBEAT experience the pulsing earth in photos
Our world is an amazingly beautiful place
Mountains cloaked in clouds, blue-green waters kissing white sand.
I see beauty in everything outside my backdoor, I wonder if you see it too …
Autumn overwhelms our senses
Sienna – Maize – Umber
Terra Cotta – Walnut – Scarlet
The wind dancing through the leaves and the hairs on our skin
Turning its dance into a frontal assault as it roars through trees ripping the last of the leaves from their branches leaving behind skeletal remains
We witness the reaping of Gaia’s sustenance as combines roll over fields of soy and corn
Leaving her creatures to glean what humans leave behind
Night falls earlier homes become our refuge
As others choose to leave
