<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Vintage Jane is closing her blog </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">for the time being at least</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">as she no longer has the time to enjoy writing it,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">it has sadly become another pressure and a chore.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">She may be back one day,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">but in the meantime, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">can be found in the lovely Instagram community ...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">just search for <span style="color: purple;">marinajane.vintage</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">of umber, ochre and sienna ...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">... appearing leaf by leaf,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">day by day,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">as Autumn spills fiery shades,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">over Summer's patchwork,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">wraps her cloak,</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">and extends her hand in cool embrace.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">VJ feels a little melancholy,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">at the thought of winter chill,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">and darker days.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Cradling her Summer reverie,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">she clings to the last warm breath,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">as she would cling to a fading love.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
