A Lethbridge Poem

28/10/2016

1 Comment

 
The sun was setting over the Rockies
and some of the peaks turned orange
as they reflected the light of the sun.

The air was cool, crisp and clear
like it usually is on a fall night
with the aroma of decaying leaves.

Coyotes were howling in the distance
and many flocks of geese were flying by
making their distinctive sound.

A porcupine perched high in a tree,
chewing fervently at the bark.
It's furry body lit up in the setting sun.

The Oldman River was roaring under it's flow,
covering the floodplains with fresh mountain silt  
and nourishing the sun parched land.

Beavers were swimming across the river
carrying small branches between their teeth,
building a dam hidden under the water.

The coulees seemed endless and delightful
with the soft curves of voluptuous women
laying on a hillside beside each other.

This is Lethbridge's natural charm,
home of the warm Chinook winds,
the prairie people and the Blood Tribe.

Sometimes Mother Nature has surprises for us. If only we notice and appreciate them. Like these perfectly placed fall leaves in the puddle on top of a large rock. The colors are a reminiscence of the warm hues of autumn.

Cottonwood Park Fall Colors

20/10/2016

Cottonwood Park is one of the nicest parks around Lethbridge. Walking in it in October is a piece of heaven on Earth. You can see the colorful cottonwood trees stretching along the river. The air is crisp with a touch of the bitter sweet aroma of the trees and the decaying leafs. The sound of the river flowing over the rocks make a soothing sound. The water is clear with a bit of silt and the color of the river is somewhere between blue, green and aquamarine. Cottonwood Park is worth the steep hike up and down.

Bow River in the Fall in Calgary

4/10/2016

You can connect with nature everywhere even in a large city like Calgary. The colors are vibrant, bright and beautiful. The Bow River looks clear and make you want to jump in but it would be a shock to the body because the temperatures are dropping. Fall brings mixed feelings with sadness of winter approaching and limiting the time we spend outdoors. Yet at the same time it showers us with amazing colors that no other season does.
