In my part of the world we are heading towards autumn although Swinburne’s “month of the long decline of roses” is not yet upon us.
Here in the abbey gardens the sun flowers still turn with movement of the sun but their seeds are setting fast.
The leaves on the climbing vines are beginning to sport the new autumnal fashions
and the rosehips offer themselves to the hungry birds

The Lemurian Abbey is a divine sanctuary across the lake from the City of Ladies. This lake is not unlike Lake Como in Northern Italy and is home to votaries of the Soul Food Way. The Abbess welcomes all comers but encourages residents to give bricks to ensure the growth of this virtual sanctuary. Check out her personal Lemurian Squidoo for products and books that she recommends.

Carol, these are gorgeous.
What amazing images of Autumn. As autumn changes leaves to rich reds and sienna’s in your world we are moving in to spring and the lambs are skipping through the pastures.
Beautiful pics!
As always your selective eye spies out the beauty for all of us. Fran
The beauty of nature is so inspirational.
My head is a shed so I am retreating to the Abbey for a bit of peace. These pictures are just lovely, peaceful, calm, colourful - accepting. I must have missed this post at the time but here we are, early March and I come across the beauty of last Autumn.
