“Her image of clouds wrapped in silks and hills in thickening shawls, and taking that as the sign of impending fall much like seasonal changes can be noted in the clothes we wear. It’s delightful!”

I love this! There’s something equalizing about the weather that makes it a special human experience. When it rains we all get wet.

How good is that!? Here are the original lines:

"Autumn begins to be inferred

By millinery of the cloud

Or deeper color in the shawl

That wraps the everlasting hill."

I loved this. It is beautifully written. And I too identify as a tree with many roots. I've struggled to express it but you just did it for me. Thank you.
