Whispers playing off the breeze
entice us to look closer
at the bouquet of life
rising from summer’s warm hands.
We catch our breath
watching the spectacular
V-formations of birds
readying for their trip south.
Together, we ease into autumn.

That’s great for your daughter. Yes. I know where White Bear Lake is. As far as bloggers go… we are almost neighbors. With all the bloggers on here, you are the closest to me. That is kind of cool. I hope you are doing well. You have done so much. I am very impressed with your blog, your writing and publishing your books etc. I want to purchase them in the very near future. I will let you know when I do. Be well. Blessings and peace, Sue

Congratulations on your daughter graduating. Did your daughter Like the U? I’m just curious what city in St. Paul you lived. I grew up there and still remember the area very well and love it even more.

I understand. Where do you live in Minnesota? I was born in St. Paul and grew up in Lakeville, MN and I just moved my youngest daughter into the dorms at the U of M for her freshman year. However, now I live in La Crosse, WI. Where are you???

Oh Sue, thank you so, so much. This means so much to me. Im writing this with a huge smile on my face. 😁 Im glad you’re looking forward to Fall. I have a love/hate relationship with it. I love the colors and the good sleeping weather..but then comes the cold MN winter. But I try not to go there until the last leaves are off the tree. Have a great weekend. 💞

I love the end line… “together we ease into Autumn.” Together let’s do that. Let us all ease gently together into fall and each day of our lives. So beautiful dear.
