While I Was Gone...

"She lost herself in the trees, among the ever-changing leaves.

She wept beneath the wild sky as stars told stories of ancient times.

The flowers grew towards her light, the river called her name at night.

She could not live an ordinary life with the mysteries of the universe hidden in her eyes."

-- Christy Ann Martine

Summer's fires had begun to fade, but memories of sun and water and wild air last forever.

Now bring on sweater weather, pumpkin spice, and the glorious riot of Autumn!
