The sky is light steel blue today
with swatches of soft white clouds.
The sun is full across the lake and
trees.
The colors of fall are subdued but
none the less beautiful.

Chickadees and nut hatch have
returned to the feeders and it is quiet.

As I look to the tops of the trees;
the birch and pines seem to be stretching, reaching towards the silent sky.
Some branches are broken from a storm
last winter; yet they seem to stretch upward looking for the strength to keep
growing.
As I move forward in my life; I am
also reaching, stretching, moving to keep growing.
