The sun looked as if it were pinned to a bissfully spotless blue background as I was driving to work yesterday morning, enjoying the fresh, peaceful air and the way it seemed to stretch into eternity. I was in high spirits feeling ebulient and happy. It was going to be yet another "summer" day in September. With the temperature going down to 28 Celsius, it was heaven on earth!
No sooner had I got back from work than doom-black clouds, pregnant with malice, looked as vapourous as mist. All of a sudden the sun had disappeared and thunder rumbled and cracked the air rolling across a malevolent sky, hailing the downpour that followed. Lightning flashed in the sky which automatically turned into gloomy grey giving me a punch of melancoly. "Lightning is the megawatt smile of nature."
It seems that Autumn has arrived in earnest!
I know Spring is your favorite season -- mine is Fall (so I'm all happy). Florida is not particularly picturesque in the Fall, no tumbling leaves but I sure like the lower temps.

Same in Larnaca. No rustling leaves flurrying down the ground. Actually, summer is my favourite season and although it's quite long in Cyprus, I always feel sad when it's gone.

Autumn is my favourite season. I love listening to the rain while enjoying a cup of hot chocolate and I really don't mind windy days. It's also the time of year when my chrysanthemums are in full bloom and my kitchen is filled with the smell of freshly baked cinnamon cookies. I really feel happy and calm in autumn.
