Fall Blooms....

There are certain things that just make you smile.

Fall Blooms,

who wouldn't smile at this bee

climbing all over the excessive pollen found on this

Camellia blossom?

Just the idea of scurrying from one bloom to another...

gathering the stocks that help survival

through the winter

months...

Isn't that what we would be doing if

we weren't so spoiled by all the

"creature comforts" of living in modern society?

Don't

get

me

wrong...

I

love,

love,

love,

said comforts...

Really I do.

But

I also

have a sort of primal

reaction to fall.

One where I have the impulse to

reorganize,

gather,

store,

maybe even...

hoard...

(hard to admit that...)

But I think it must be

stored deep within our DNA

that instinct to prepare for the

cold months.

What do you think?
