An Autumn Mood

I'm in a mood

It isn't a bad mood, but it isn't exactly a good mood either.  Yesterday I was in a good mood, a great mood .  It was cheerful and energetic and all about making the most of the moment and having fun.  This mood isn't like that.  Today I'm. . . restless.

I want to go dancing, I want to paint, I want to walk on a beach.  I want to find an old library or a used bookstore and dive into a pile of musty books.  I want to pick vegetables and bite crisp apples and ride in a boat.  Something inside me really wants me to be writing this on paper.  There is a need for a heavy pen and really black ink, not a keyboard.

Today is absolutely beautiful where I am.  I live in a place that has all four seasons , where summer is short and fall comes early.  It's sunny and warm today and is more like summer than fall.  The trees behind my house are red-tipped though, and I know that summer is over.  Something has shifted, the seasons are changing.  This is an Autumn Mood.
