oats, rain, and autumn
posted by soe 3:28 am

Three beautiful things from my past week:

Untitled

1. The sea oats in the bouquets on my desk sway and clatter slightly in the breeze when my window is open or when, catlike, I reach out to bat at them. The sound reminds me of the shore.

2. It’s been a long spell since we’ve had a storm. It spatters against the leaves that have fallen into the window well and drips off the tree above.

3. The scent of dry leaves wafts up from beneath my feet. It is the smell of fall.

How about you? What’s been beautiful in your world this week?

Very pretty bouquet. I’m trying to imagine what sea oats sound like.

@Karen: A little bit like cereal being poured into a ceramic bowl.
