The Joy of Butterflies...

What a wonderful time of year- Autumn, Fall, Indian Summer!  The color of Fall is so warm and inviting and is no more brilliant than in this wonderful butterfly that graced my front porch this morning in a pot of pansies.

Beauty like this makes my heart sing!♫♫  I hope you enjoyed this Monday share from my Korner of the world.  Have a wonderful day!

My Wild Heart to Yours....

Sounds and colors of Fall

Don't you just love the Fall?  There is a painting to be born when I look out every window in the house!  Blue, Blue sky with lovely gray branches and orange leaves against it, V's of Canadian Geese flying in both directions and the rustle of leaves under my feet as I rake the yard.  Ahhh, to be a kid again and jumping in the leaves, and smelling their aroma!

And butterflies still come as beautiful as ever!

First Halloween and now it is the Month of Thanksgiving already!
