The Hush Comes With The Deepening of Autumn

This autumn reflection is being shared with you by Boreal Forest Citizen and Brickyard Creek community member, Zina Harrington. You might find Zina and her husband, Shad, with their two girls skipping rocks at the beach, roaming the community trails in Wellies or eating ice-cream downtown Bayfield.

The hush comes with the deepening of autumn, but it comes gradually. Our ears are attuned to it day by quieter day. But even now if one awakens in the deep darkness of the small hours, one can hear it, a foretaste of winter silence. — Hal Borland

The hush comes with
the deepening of autumn,
but it comes gradually.
Our ears are attuned to it
day by quieter day.
But even now if one awakens in
the deep darkness of the small hours,
one can hear it,
a foretaste of winter silence.
