No surprise, that here on Earth, nature seems so perfect....

as I lovingly admire the reflection in my mirror.... But seriously, folks, here in the US northeast, so close ooooouuuuut there to OH Canada, EH?...even our evergreens shed a bit in the Autumn wind and storms. But it's the fall of the leaves, after the brilliant shows of color change, that hint, once agoin, how perfectly timed these changes seem. All entirely so that I can rake in more comfortable weather. However, our ecologist friends remind us that, what we see as beauty, beautifully choreographed hand in glove interrelatedness between, say weather and the well timed fall of leaves, has a brutal story as well. Countless generations of apparent mismatches, in these regards, with the demise of individuals, that finally yield so many links, on a species level. And, finally is the wrong word, as it continues. Sure, some groups can have enormously long runs, as with the angiosperms, many insects, and the dinosaurs. But in time, the ecological grim reaper calls us all. Mammals, also here for eons, take note.

Yep I have just come back from Wales and meandering through the forests was a brilliant array of browns, greens, golds and orange just magnificent.
Nature always brings me a peace, and I hope I am hugging a tree grin when I pop my clogs laugh

Ah, my beautiful Usha, with such well placed and thoughtful comments, how can any poor slob of a man not fall ever more deeply into that web you cast, of SL love spell? To be placed on the same high pedestal with CC, one of my ersatz blog mentors, why it nearly brought me to tears of uncomparable joy. Yes, we may write with cryptic pens, but in the end, we may write with cryptic pens. Never give up on me, my little heart throb, in all my imperfections. And don't marry CC---he's a crumb. But the new pic is intriguing.
