Falling into Winter

In my little corner of the world, I'm surrounded by inspiration all the time. Although I have come to love other parts of the world, I would miss this. I love the fiery colors against the blue of lake and sky. The deep shadows across the lawn. The Japanese Maple tree in my yard is always splendid but shows off a bit more when it's fall. This is my calm when nothing else in the world is. Here I write and dream and wake to write again.
