Blankets

This is a gourd that I bought in the fall at an apple orchard. It has sat on my dresser since the end of September. I'm not sure if it is acceptable to have a gourd indoors for that long, but I've kept it there regardless. It reminds me of a fun day with family and friends that already feel like family.

A long goodbye is comin' on.
Just one more sun and I'll be gone.
The roads will wind
And tracks will sing
'Til winter's moans turns into spring.

And in the spring I brought you roses,
And in the summer for you gold,
And in the fall a blanket's warmin'
For in the winter to unfold.

I cannot wait for this semester to be over so that I can spend more time with those same people. I am so close to finally being done!
