So I stopped my walk, climbed the gate
to help an old farmer cursing his deaf god
bringing in the last of a poor harvest…

Jim Carruth
Only Human

So I stopped my walk, climbed the gate
to help an old farmer cursing his deaf god
bringing in the last of a poor harvest.
He must have been struggling all day
on his own to fill that small trailer.

I cannot make more of this than it was.
I was no passing Samaritan, saving him
minutes at most, nor a reluctant volunteer
some Simon of Cyrene shouldering
the burden of a stranger’s sodden bale.

As for him, this ageing hunch-backed man
he could not raise his head to say thanks
nor straighten his spine to walk like a saint
not even resurrect the past fortnight of rain
into one unblemished day of a risen sun.

Seven scythes leaned at the wall.
Beard upon golden beard
The last barley load
Swayed through the yard…

Taxman
by George Mackay Brown

Seven scythes leaned at the wall.
Beard upon golden beard
The last barley load
Swayed through the yard.
The girls uncorked the ale.
Fiddle and feet moved together.
Then between stubble and heather
A horseman rode.

Harvest Tapestry by Lisa S Baker is a warm, modern abstract that weaves together the colors of autumn into a patchwork of texture and light. Rich shades of amber, russet, and golden ochre mingle with soft blush and earthy olive, creating a layered effect that feels both rustic and contemporary. Like a quilt stitched by the season itself, each block and brushstroke adds to the rhythm of fall’s story. Perfect for cozying up a living room, dining area, or creative space, this piece celebrates the beauty of autumn in a bold yet inviting way.

Ce matin était littéralement un enchantement 🧚‍♂️✨

Je suis partie traverser les champs de maïs aux premiers rayons du soleil,

J’ai été émue par le vol migratoire des oies bernaches,

Photographié et observé les oiseaux dans les bois,

Récolté des faines et des noisettes,

Quelques feuilles et fleurs sauvages pour mon bouquet,

Trié mes plantes séchées, faire la place aux plus belles couleurs de la saison, j’aime ces compositions d’amour ! 🌼

Ma plus belle et magique matinée de 2026, merci à la Nature de m’offrir tant de bonheur 🙏

J’espère que ces quelques photos vont vous inspirer 🥰

Pumpkin #Harvest Time!
This is by far the best pumpkin yield I've ever had. Even though I had many garden fails this year, it's good to have this success.
#Garden #Gardening
#Fall

My golden retriever sits next to a metal whellbarrow filled with 20 small and medium sugar pie pumpkins. The wheelbarrow sits on a gravel driveway. Behind that and the dog you can see the waning pumpkin vines coming up from raised beds.
