Autumn Moments in Amsterdam, 2017 Edition

Fall, leaves, fall
By Emily Bronte

Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;
Lengthen night and shorten day;
Every leaf speaks bliss to me
Fluttering from the autumn tree.
I shall smile when wreaths of snow
Blossom where the rose should grow;
I shall sing when night’s decay
Ushers in a drearier day.

(Source: Poetry Foundation)

A visual ode to the turn of season here in Amsterdam.

Hi, I’m Amrita—the voice behind Diligent Candy. I’m a writer, educator, and quiet rebel drawn to slow living, thoughtful words, and mildly overthinking everything. This blog is my corner of the internet where intellect meets whimsy, and where I explore the sweet spots between scholarship, simplicity, and joy.
