Indian Summer 11/10/09

November’s warmth and mellowness

Earthy aroma of fallen leaves

Soft honey-hued light enfolding

Nature’s graceful respite

Endnote: The beginning of Indian Summer is generally considered to be November 11, St. Martin’s day. Some say the North American native peoples believed it was caused by a warm wind sent by their southwestern God, Cautantowwit (Old Farmer’s Almanac).
