Mountain ash

I visited our municipal cemetery today. I got sad. It wasn't because of atmosphere of the place. I usually just feel peace, not sadness here. I saw red, mature fruits of rowans (mountain ashes, Sorbus aucuparia L.). It means that the autumn is coming. We haven't even had proper summer yet :(

Odwiedziłam nasz miejski cmentarz dzisiaj. Posmutniałam. Nie z powodu atmosfery tego miejsca. Zwykle czuję tu po prostu spokój, nie smutek. Zobaczyłam czerwone owoce jarzębiny (jarząb pospolity, Sorbus aucuparia L.). Oznacza to, że jesień nadchodzi, a nie mieliśmy nawet jeszcze porządnego lata :(

  6. The first autumn signs (japanese anemons in my garden) makes always me sad too. Even when summer not really had begun...
    But at least the autumn time often is nicer and longer than summer itself - let enjoy it!

  9. Seasons usually come when they should and we must trust the process I guess.

  11. The weather is so messed up all over and I know have experienced the same feelings about missing some seasons. Maybe next year will be better :)
