first felled leaves, eight months old.


a boy and his mama, through the eyes of his papa, on the eve of passage into eight months since.

tend'rest introduction, it was, and one of my earliest dreams for him. in my head, in my memory, these scenes spin on a film reel, set to the tune of moon river, playing out in honeyed light, two days ahead of autumn's rise. and can you believe it? our boy has been earthbound all four seasons now. i can believe it, and i cannot, and i can.

  1. I just had to put on Moon River and now I'm listening to dear Audrey's voice while typing this comment. I envy your fallen leaves. My only wish for California is that it would have more fire-turning leaves.
