Finding joy in the simple things—the frost on the grass, the bend of a stem, an early morning fog—is far easier than seeking it in more complicated packages. I was never that thrilled with complications anyway.
In this case, it's the caramel-colored seeds of river oats, a.k.a. Chasmanthium latifolium; but that's a mouthful, let's stick with the former, it's simpler. The waning days of fall find this native grass browning, producing seeds that hang like miniature Japanese lanterns.

Beautiful! The colors and the graceful bend are wonderful.
It's a lovely photograph--has such sweet simplicity.
Thank you all. Yes. It's often the simple things that thrill you.
Or should thrill you.
