Open Link Monday

I think that wherever we live in the varied world, we are all feeling that the change of seasons is almost upon us, something which is sure to be reflected in our gardens, parks, farms or flower boxes. After reading many poems over the weekend, I notice how clearly it is reflected in our writing too, as evident change in our surroundings is bound to stimulate creative thought. It is always a delight for me to find myself in this particular garden on a Monday, and I look forward to enjoying many pieces of writing shared on this open forum today.

Everyone is welcome to join in with original writing, so please link up your latest piece, or a poem from your archives.  Stay a while, and visit with those who have linked up alongside you - your words of encouragement are greatly appreciated.

So sorry for the extra work Kerry.

Happy noon-time! I used to love poetry readings, concerts, and plays at noon back when I was a graduate student . . . and I love reliving that now from my comfortable desk chair at home. Kerry, I know this is the middle of your night . . . have a happy day.

One from the "archives" but since my blog is in infancy it's not from too far back. Thanks to all--happy day :)

Susie's link doesn't work for me. :-(

Much love and kindness to you all. Once again, today's offering is an older poem, but offered as a tribute to Alice. Thanks for the kind support - Mosk

I don't know why my first link didn't work, but I sent it again and it looks like it is working now.

Another week, another older one with a facelift.

Hi Toads - I read Kortas comment above about another older one with a facelift and felt like it was a suggestion for my own visage! (Ha!) I finding new weird creases every week. And also have a bit of a flu today so feeling extremely decrepit. Will poetry help???? Hope so. k.

I love the pictures you selected for this post. :) So cute! And yes, I have been feeling autumn in the air for a week or so. I can hardly wait.

Thanks so much for all the great comments on my poem; I'm jumping in to read everyone now.
