ENJOY, and don't think a bit about the clock (except to get to sessions and coffee dates on time)! Hamish did a beautiful job bringing in the harvest.

Ah, another poem. I'm sure you are having a good time "hobnobbing with your fellow wizards."

Tick Tock is a delightful poem that reminds me of a clock my Nonnie had and a Victorian clock that I own. It has a mind of its own. For years it did not chime and then one day after moving in I heard the beautiful chimes for a short time and now it is quiet again. Hamish has a wonderful old piece of art work and a poem that I would like to add to my fall gallery, Bedecked in Autumn. If you agree, can you please send me a copy of the image poem?
