The Savill Garden in November
shades of ochre, umber and siena
smell of damp grass
red leaves underfoot
still dank air
muffled sound of rooks
new coat and warm boots
thoughts of buttered crumpets
brief moments of brilliance

My favorite time of year. You've done it well.
ReplyDeleteToo kind *blushes*
DeleteI second my sweet Bb in toto.
ReplyDeleteBlushes even more.
DeleteYou have captured the dreariness of November beautifully - I especially like the reflections in the water. I have dreams of buttered crumpets too.
ReplyDeleteButtered crumpets wins over Colin Firth every time.
DeleteWe haven't had too much of the dank and dreary so far, justone or two days, mostly it has been bright and sunny.
ReplyDeleteI feel that I can confidently predict that Dank and Dreary is in your immediate future.
DeleteI love Autumn. Such a lovely park.
