Dear Grammy, Thank you. Our little song comes from "Flower Fairies of the Autumn" by Cicely Mary Barker. She has these for each season. Happy New Moon, Sherry
How appropriate, Sherry--I have buckets of apples just waiting for me to put up. They have been bountiful this year. And I have heard of Michaelmas in poetry before, but didn't realize it was Sept. 29.
Dear Rose, My neighbor's apple tree is full of ripening apples. The ground below is also full of ripe (rotting) apples. The butterflies love those! September's New Moon name changed this year... October now has the Monarch New Moon. A bit of tweeking....it happens. LOL. I was very excited Michaelmas was on New Moon. I thought it would be nice to celebrate them together. Long ago Michaelmas was a very important holiday. Sherry
Dear Chris, Thank you! Happy New Apple Moon to you too. I always think of you when I am spending time with the moon. Hope your Autumn is crisp and delicious! Hugs, Sherry

I just love your extra tidbits of information. I had no idea of Michaelmas until today. Thank you.
I wonder what the tune is that goes with the Michealmas song?? It sure is a sweet picture that goes with the song.
Oh..I have to tell this to my sister!! Today is her birthday!
May I use the Fotoan tale of the daisy Fairy formy Blog?
Dear Mimi,
We do have lots of fun!
I am busy looking for a goose for Michaelmas!

I'm up for the challenge:
Pumpkins are ready
For pies, loaves and cakes
Growing and cooking
We know what it takes!
Not as good as yours, but it's fun to think in rhyme.
Blessed Bee
Dear Wendy,
So fun!! Thinking in rhyme is the best.
I am looking forward to getting our pumkpins. I did not grow any this year.
Sherry
To wish you a belated happy new apple moon, Sherry :-) I hope you are well. Where has the year gone to?
Dear Chris,
Thank you! Happy New Apple Moon to you too. I always think of you when I am spending time with the moon. Hope your Autumn is crisp and delicious!
