Autumn Colors

autumn colors -
a yellow butterfly
on a purple aster




Earlier on this morning, with a sea of clouds

Gabi, the colors in ll.2-3 are not the ones l.1 led me to expect -- which makes your ku all the more effective for me.

Best, Bill

That was just the intention, Bill !
The backdrop of my mountain is autumn colors now, but my garden, still a symphony of different colors. This year is mild and many many flowers are just spectacular. The Bees and the Butterflies are still very acitve.

Expectations are really a BAD thing, because they often make us overlook what is really in front of our noses and eyes ...
