To Autumn and books and all things lovely...



The winds are howling and the chill is finding its way through my clothing. All I'd like to do is open a book and read all day in the warmth of my study. How about you?

A perfect day for this short poem. It is new to me - I fell across it and instantly connected with it.

In The Library by Dorothea Grossman

The library always smells like this:
an ancient stew of vinegar and wood.
It’s autumn again,
and I can do anything.

Oh - I like that! Ever since having Oliver the only time I get to do something like that is when I am so sick, which kind of takes some of the fun out it but still feels like a luxury :)

Ah, you put it perfectly! I'm such a fan of the chillier weather and all the goodies that come with it!
