Happy Thanksgiving!

Painting 197. A Tufted Titmouse Outside my Kitchen Window on the Eve of Thanksgiving

(watercolor)

...and a poem for autumn:

The morns are meeker than they were,

The nuts are getting brown;

The berry's cheek is plumper,

The rose is out of town.

The maple wears a gayer scarf,

The field a scarlet gown.

Lest I should be old-fashioned,

I'll put a trinket on.
