Leaves

Rainy Day

Where I live, June was very warm this year. But the weather has changed, and today we’ve had a strong winds and heavy rain. The temperature dropped quite a bit too, and it felt more like early September than the first week of July. Even if it felt like the autumn briefly visited us, it is within what we might expect. It is the high temperatures in June that are outside the norm.

Autumn Leaves

“Autumn leaves” is perhaps the jazz standard, composed by Joseph Kosma with lyrics by the French poet Jacques Prévert. Both audience and musicians seems to never tire of that song. And I guess those of us who live in a parts of the world where we are fortunate enough to experience the changing seasons never tire of the colourful autumn leaves.
