Hints of Things to Come
Nature sends her little signals: A thought, a daydream, a small swath of color on a late summer leaf. On some level, we’re prepared for whatever is coming next.
And whether we know it or not, we participate in its design and prepare ourselves to welcome its arrival. We begin to think about pulling our warm socks out from storage, about putting another blanket on the bed. Ever so slightly we start to yearn for the texture of a freshly picked apple, for the fragrance of a pumpkin pie.
We don’t act yet. It’s just a passing thought.
And outside our windows, here and there, leaves take on shades of crimson and yellow.
