Autumn Fires

Autumn Fires

Robert Louis Stevenson

In the other gardens

And all up in the vale,

From the autumn bonfires

See the smoke trail!

Pleasant summer over,

And all the summer flowers,

The red fire blazes,

The grey smoke towers.

Sing a song of seasons!

Something bright in all!

Flowers in the summer,

Fires in the fall!

Scenes from the farm: finally during the burn pile of old tomato stakes and pallets, harvesting oh so beautiful radicchio, and taking naps in the sun while we still can.
