summer is waning


When the explorer gentian is in bloom it is a bittersweet sign that summer is waning. Have we laid in the grass and soaked up enough warmth to last the winter? Have we really looked at the flowers so that their unbelievable color is imprinted on our mind... Bring on the beautiful hues of autumn, golden yellow, red, orange, brown, rust and all the rest. The smell of rotting leaves, the cool crisp air, and then whiteness. The seasons, I love them all!
