Words to the Wise: Sharing Life, Lessons, and Observations

Words to the Wise is a collection of stories, observations and insight drawn from my own experience both in the past and in the present, together with my perspective on what I may have learned in the process. Occasional poetry and astrological insights will be included when appropriate. I welcome comments, suggestions and thoughts of all kinds and am happy to respond.

Autumn Hoard

Posted by on in SageWoman Blogs

Even as the last trees turn,
The last bees seek the last flowers
Storing up Autumn's nectar.
So too I layer the lovely leaves
In a pile of brilliant hue
Ready to jump into of a white Winter's day
When all around is bleached stark bare.
The bees are secure
With their honey for the winter
And I have stored up beauty
For my color starved self to feast upon.
