TREES

Trees are the kindest things I know,

they do no harm, they simply grow.

And spread a shade for sleepy cows, and gather birds among their boughs,

They give us fuit in leaves above, and wood to make our houses of,

and leaves to burn on halloween, and in the spring new buds of green.

They are the first when day's begun to touch the beams of morning sun,

they are the last to hold the light when evening changes into night.

And when a moon floats on the sky they hum a drowsy lullaby of sleepy children long ago...

Trees are the kindest things I know.

~Harry Behn

3rd drawing winner of September...

~ is Debbie from Cudahy, WI

Congratulations you won a collection of

Pumpkin Pie Scent fixins...

Fall Fun!!!

~On a crisp, sunny day take your family on a hike to the woods. Pick up colorful leaves, acorns, walnuts and bittersweet. Come home and string a fall garland to hang across the mantel or doorway.

There is something in the autumn

that is native to my blood~

Touch of manner, hint of mood,

And my heart is like a rhyme,

With the yellow and the purple

and the crimson keeping time.

~Bliss Carman

Tip of the Season!!!

~Carved pumpkins only stay fresh for a few days. To keep them fresh longer, coat the cut edges with peroleum jelly.
