Need a last paddle

Fall into winter

when the world is an Alice-in Wonderland
upside down
crazy
nonsensical place
take a breath
look at Mother Nature's palette
refresh your soul ...

beautiful Autumn colors...

Hope has two beautiful daughters;
their names are Anger and Courage.
Anger at the way things are, and
Courage to see that they
do not remain as they are.
-Augustine of Hippo

My garden. June 2026

Yellow roses in the front, and red roses at the back. Green foliage. A paved surface with brick accents is also visible.

A dark photo of trees with large root arches leading into darkness. A poem titled Journey by Robert Emond reads:

Doors to realms unseen
Mysteries unknowable 
Will you see them unlocked 
Fears must be faced unfazed
Wisdom to be had unbounded 
Impossible with current thinking unbroken 
Seen with fresh eyes a new world will unfold

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before

The Water and The Hill
The water doesn't like a hill
It cannot stay there
Oh, maybe it can cling to a few shallow puddles...
(Full poem in alt)

Black and white image of rushing rapids with a white ice boulder, and a super-imposed poem.  The poem reads:
"The Water and The Hill
The water doesn’t like a hill.
It cannot stay there.
Oh, maybe it can cling to a few shallow puddles
But otherwise it must flow
Away or down or around.

The hill may not know the power 
It has over water.
Although it knows it can pierce the sky
And cause the water to fall
On its peak and flanks and valleys.

The hill may not know,
But the water knows it cannot stay."

But don't lose heart
dear ones, don't lose heart.
Don't let it make you bitter.
Try to understand.
Try to understand.
The world's already
bitter enough,
we got to try to be
better than the world.

One leaf blazes softly in the dark.

The world always makes beauty out of letting go. 🍁

A delicate pink Japanese maple leaf spreads like a small flame across a bed of fallen leaves. Its finely cut, fingerlike lobes glow in shades of rose, coral, and pale gold against the deep blue-green, charcoal, and muted olive tones of the darker leaves beneath it. Thin brown stems cross the layered background, creating an intricate woodland pattern. The vivid leaf stands out in the center of the photograph, illuminated against the shadowy autumn colors.

our neighbors franticly
rake...
blow...
and bag their leaves...
We simply let them
sit where they please ...

There must be a zillion leaves behind our home all over the grass. 
We leave them as they are, while our neighbors spend hours trying to get rid of theirs ..

O world, I cannot hold thee close enough!
Thy woods, this autumn day, that ache and sag
Lord, I do fear
Thou’st made the world too beautiful this year;
My soul is all but out of me,—let fall
No burning leaf; prithee, let no bird call
Edna StVincent Millay (see alt)

A wooden walkway leading forward, the setting sun golden and illuminating the leaves scattered across the path. Autumn trees, red and orange, line both sides of the walkway.

God's World
BY EDNA ST. VINCENT MILLAY

O world, I cannot hold thee close enough!
   Thy winds, thy wide grey skies!
   Thy mists, that roll and rise!
Thy woods, this autumn day, that ache and sag
And all but cry with colour!   That gaunt crag
To crush!   To lift the lean of that black bluff!
World, World, I cannot get thee close enough!

Long have I known a glory in it all,
         But never knew I this;
         Here such a passion is
As stretcheth me apart,—Lord, I do fear
Thou’st made the world too beautiful this year;
My soul is all but out of me,—let fall
No burning leaf; prithee, let no bird call.

The image captures the intense, exploding sea spray and churning foam characteristic of Thor's Well, a fascinating natural wonder located on the Oregon Coast within the Cape Perpetua Scenic Area.
 Often referred to as the "Drainpipe of the Pacific," Thor's Well looks like a bottomless sinkhole endlessly swallowing the ocean. In reality, it is a bowl-shaped feature carved into the rugged volcanic basalt shoreline.
• Geological Origins: Geologists believe it began as a subterranean sea cave. Over thousands of years, continuous wave erosion caused the cave's roof to collapse, creating openings at both the top and bottom.
• True Depth: While it looks like an endless abyss from certain angles, it is actually only about 20 feet (6 meters) deep.
• The "Maelstrom" Effect: During high tide or severe storms, ocean water surges powerfully into the underwater cave from underneath, compressing air and forcing a massive geyser-like eruption of water out of the top. As the wave recedes, the water rapidly drains back down, creating the illusion of a giant plug being pulled from the sea.
