Autumn Scenes from Paris

 

Autumn Paris, Corey Amaro,

 

 

Autumn scenes in Paris

"In Paris there are more flower shops than days in a year"

Flower shops that spill on to the streets, petal after petal, filling tender senses, vivid blooms with inviting perfume, instantaneously the desire to make an armful bouquet:

 

"Petite Fleurs"

 

 

 

"…Dans mon cœur
Tu fleuriras toujours
Au grand jardin d'amour
Petite fleur…"

 

 

Paris, gold leaves, autumn, Corey Amaro

 

 

 

Golden leaves

too many to count,

watching the dance from branch to ground,

A carpet tempting you to frolic in a pile.

Yellows that make the sun jealous.

Jealous as its rays kiss.

From Invalides to the Grande Palais a cry heard as the sun kissed them both in the late afternoon.

A stroll an hour before sunset: From the Louvre, through the Tuileries Jarden, pass the Place de Concorde, alongside the river Seine, across the Pont Alexandre III, to the Invalides.

Jardin Invalides.

Sacha and I went, he wanted to see the exposition of the Arms. I looked at the costumes: The buttons, the gold trims, the plumes on the hats, the sword cases… embellishments that I find at the brocante came to light.

Sad history war is.

  1. Green trees, brown grass. It was in the lower 90s here last week. But this week is much cooler, in the high 60s.

    Finally, rain.
    It rained last night for the first time since
    forever I think. I can’t honestly remember
    the last rain in my neighborhood.
    I looked out the kitchen window this morning
    and saw the few surviving trees glistening
    the brightest green in the morning sun.
    Rain, blessed rain, finally.

  3. Gold, red, russet, the colour of falling leaves and autumn, but mixed with brick red dahlias, bright red geraniums which are still blooming in full force thanks to this wonderful Indian Summer we are experiencing 🙂

  4. That would be WHITE! And lots of white. We were blessed with about 8-9 inches of snow Tuesday. Looks like Christmas outside my windows.

  5. Red and golden maple leaves, as well as brown oak leaves, outside our windows. When we moved here, the trees would be bare by the end of October, but with the warming climate the leaves now linger 2-3 weeks more.
    Indian Summer temperatures all week, which made going to the polls pleasant, but seasonable weather returns over the weekend. Just wish autumn were directly followed by spring…

  6. I agree! Your place looks like the perfect place to stay in Paris, Corey (I just sent you an email!). We are hoping your little gem is still available in July.
    Happy weekend!
