In the Berkshires

We’re in the Berkshire Mountains
And it’s glorious for fall - 
The foliage and sunny skies
Have heeded Nature’s call.

We’re doing all the tourist stuff -
Museums, gardens, trails,
And strolling through some towns and stores,
Which every trip entails.

Our photos capture some of it -
The beauty and the art,
But the timing is, to me,
What really sets this one apart.

For coming down from what were 
Quite emotional events,
We needed such a getaway,
Since what this represents

Is a celebration of the fact
That everything we’d planned
Worked out beautifully despite the stress
I barely could withstand.

It’s wonderful to have the chance
To sigh with great relief
And reward ourselves with travel,
Even though the visit’s brief.
