waning sunflowers
catch golden dreams of finches
summers almost gone
the slow turning days of summer
begin their somersault
into fall.
all those touch the sky sunflowers
hang their dazzling heads nearly spent,
waving at heaven.
savoring each moment-
may we each be golden finch dreams
perched on the rim
of abundance.
come please,

Such abundance and such a harvest gleaned... despite the heat, I feel the touch of Fall in the air and the evenings... I savor these days, especially our Fridays, all the more... how fortunate are we to find ourselves savoring these moments, together... love you sweet Rebecca... XOXOXO

The heads are bowing heavily now. Next year's flowers are being collected.

Summer is, indeed, nearly gone and mine has been fraught with sorrow and joy. Just waiting to see what autumn has to offer. I guess the word for the day is "anticipation." Have a grand weekend!!

I'm wishing for the end of summer! In our beloved desert today the high is supposed to be 110 and tomorrow even higher! Instead of complaining, however, I shall dream of finches and sunflowers.

These are such lovely thoughts, Rebecca. Vivid description of the reality of summer's end. Do you think finches truly dream golden dreams? I like to think so. Such beauty you have portrayed, both in pictures and words.

Summer is waning...and the gold finch did not visit my sunflowers this year. Hope the cooling weather has found it's way to you...
