A clear autumn afternoon

The fog has lifted,
autumn colours glow and warm,
crisp, crunchy footfall on the ground,
then far away glint pale grey silhouettes
– Welsh hills against the golden clouds,
and slanting rays of light from roof of lowering grey,
as afternoon approaches evening still and clear.

I know what you mean about that fog and mist, Rhiannon, it was so glorious to see the sun rise this morning whilst I drank my cuppa;-) Your poem captured, admirably, what I saw too, except for the Welsh hills, of course. Very much enjoyed. Tina

Nice, Rhiannon. We see those Welsh mountains across the water. When not covered with cloud.

Ah, wonder where you're seeing them from! Glad you enjoyed my little note about these pleasures, as you say noticed when the fog/clouds lift. Thanks. Rhiannon

One of those days when the weather clears after fog, and you really appreciate the colours again and the view. Thank you for commenting. Rhiannon

Hi Rhiannon

Another lovely descriptive poem - of autumn and the weather and a general feeling of good will.
