November has no greeting;
no smile, no hello

A triumphant rose
meanwhile, blooms with such candor
and resplendency...

" Temple, Vermillion "

Vermillion red
yellow ochre, olive green,
and raw sienna...

© 2020 Pamela MacCarthy

I took a trip to the Takahata Fudo-son Temple yesterday,
to see this year’s chrysanthemum festival,
but it wasn’t happening...

There were no advertisements as usual about it,
so I thought it might’ve been canceled, as most everything else has been
due to Covid-19, but I wanted to go anyway...

I had a mini-hike around the grounds, with its climbing paths
I got many good views of the slightly changing colors of Autumn.

I took photos, and I bought some temple incense.

It was very quiet, for a Sunday,
and I enjoyed the cool fresh air and sunshine...

just wander around...
