Merry Autumn Days
By Charles Dickens
‘Tis pleasant on a fine spring morn
To see the buds expand,.
‘Tis pleasant in the summer time
To see the fruitful land;
‘Tis pleasant on a winter’s night
To sit around the blaze,
But what are joys like these, my boys,
To merry autumn days!
We hail the merry Autumn days,
When leaves are turning red;
Because they’re far more beautiful
Than anyone has said,
We hail the merry harvest time,
The gayest of the year;
The time of rich and bounteous crops,
Rejoicing and good cheer.

Wow, a feast for the eyes...
Hello Portland! Pardon me for my ignorance but in which part of The States is Portland found? I love those leaves in autumn, eternally beautiful. In Singapore where I live, it's summer all year-round. Very sad case here.

Wow ! The fall in the US is a wonder. The colors are amazing! Thank you for sharing this with us.
I have tried to explain how to put links (which is extremely easy, I think) on my blog not to clutter up yours :-))
Hey hey hey! Sooo beautiful. Don't you just love autumn? :D I just love it! I love the different colours in your photo. Wish we had the same in Norwich.

And what a view! I'm jealous.
I think these are the prettiest fall pictures I've seen so far! Now I'm going to check your other blog.
What beautiful color. I hope we have bright color like that here in Georgia this year.
Beautiful Fall colors ... We are a few weeks away from natures glorious display.
the colors of autumn are so beautiful
Thank you for sharing nature's display of color with us. What a nice view to wake up to, and to watch as the color changes proceed towards winters bare branches.
It's me again ;) - back to say "great choice of poem to go with your photo". Enjoyed it, too.
The orange and yellow colors are amazing. I haven't seen the color change in my neighborhood yet but I anticipate that to happen in a week or two since we just had our first week of fall/autumn weather this week.
WOW! Brilliant colors, very pretty. We are having a rather dull-colored fall this year so it is nice to see your colors. Very pretty!
Exactly what I imagine Autumn in North America !
I thought of you:
you have been TAGGED.

Have a nice day.
You just can't beat that for a view! Beautiful work!!
wow oh wow im so speechless those were just so beautiful autumn leaves.
Spectacular color!! I am speechless at the beauty...it is why fall/autumn is my favorite time of year!!!!
Great colours, gorgeous pictures!
Thanks for your comments on Blogtrotter; you're always welcome.
Have a great week!
Wonderful color, Lynette! Just stunning photo!
Beautiful and stunning! Autum is about the prettiest month, but sadly, it is all too short a time period.
I'm very jealous that you guys have that wonderful color this year! Our trees haven't even started to turn brown because they are so traumatized by the horrible weather all year.
By the way, Lynette, I'm it, and I'm tagging you. For more information on how to play, go to Nashville Daily Photo
Wonderful autumn colours! Those reds! And those yellows! And those faded greens! Beautiful!
Hello Lynette, Those leaves are surely the gayest of the year, so full of color and excitement. How fine that you can look right out your window to see them.
And you can see these marvelous leaves right from your living room, isn't that just priceless? :)
Love the photos! Out here we haven't yet reached peak. One more week, maybe, but the winds tend to pick up this time of year...
Enjoy a colorful week ahead!
Lovely rich colours! Come and pop over to Toruń DP as we have a special competition today...where you could win a prize!
Just gorgeous!
Amazing colour!!
Fantastically beautiful! Lucky you to have such an Autumn display. We don't seem to be as lucky, this year.

WOW. That is outstanding. You won't see anything remotely that colorful in FL...
Its crazy how just in the past week or so everything has changed so dramatically. I was out of town for just three days and coming back is quite the comparison from how it was even just before I left. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful shots...simple loved the colors!
