A Fall Song

Filed Under: Family, Photography Tagged With: Fall

A Fall Song

by Ellen Robena Field

 

Golden and red trees
Nod to the soft breeze,
As it whispers, “Winter is near;”
And the brown nuts fall
At the wind’s loud call,
For this is the Fall of the year.

A Fall Song

Good-by, sweet flowers!
Through bright Summer hours
You have filled our hearts with cheer
We shall miss you so,
And yet you must go,
For this is the Fall of the year.

A Fall Song

Now the days grow cold,
As the year grows old,
And the meadows are brown and sere;
Brave robin redbreast
Has gone from his nest,
For this is the Fall of the year.

A Fall Song

I do softly pray
At the close of day,
That the little children, so dear,
May as purely grow
As the fleecy snow
That follows the Fall of the year.

    Love love love these! I am so bummed. I have hardly shot any fall foliage yet. Must change that this weekend. To be fair the leaves have just started to turn around here. It takes forever. Back home in Maine they are already off the trees.

    Beautiful photos! And beautiful song! I really love fall but haven't had much time to be out enjoying it with just me and my camera. Not complaining though because that means I've been busy with photo sessions! ;)

Another one bites the dust, for a total of 4 teeth Another one bites the dust, for a total of 4 teeth before she even turns 6. Craziness. The boys were much later losing their teeth. This one came out at school, so 2 at home and 2 at school so far.

She lost her top tooth this morning while brushing her teeth. All of a sudden she stopped then turned her head and spit the tooth out. I was cracking up. She keeps me on my toes.

Carsyn’s first day of school a few days late. Th Carsyn’s first day of school a few days late. The teachers say he seems happy to be back. This would technically be his 8th grade but we will probably hold him back a few years in middle school before we move him up to high school. Of course they are “virtual” tomorrow and possibly Friday because of the hurricane/tropical storm. Then Labor Day on Monday. So he probably won’t be back again until Tuesday.

He committed to working out and bulking this Summer and made some huge gains. Swipe to see his last day of school photo in June. We are so proud of him.

Another one that needs a hair cut and he has been bugging me about it. 🤣 Didn’t really notice how long it was until I compared it to the other photo. Prestyn had a great year and has made some amazing friends. He can’t wait to start 2nd grade next year.

Carsyn went through a rough time at school, losing his best friend in the classroom, and losing one of his favorite teachers but he has done amazing adjusting.
