Autumn Color

The untraveled road lay before me, taking me miles away from town, A planned trip to drive and view the change in foliage autumn hue. It was windy, cool and beautiful to see, the seasonal change that lay before me. And as the sun began to set I returned to drive the familiar routine roadway home. There along my frequented path lie hidden and discreet the repetitious flow of trees appearing on my street yellows, oranges, full color glowing brittle sheen amidst a pop of red, brown, dark cherry, plum, and evergreen. With unexpected observation I was suprised full color palettes unseen, no longer in disguise. Here in silence waiting at my very door tall, vibrant and magnificent color galore. .

If it is an "untraveled" road, how can it be a "familiar" routine?

For foolish busy people that take the more traveled road, I am lucky to be one of the few who travel both. Thanks for reading. DMB
