How whimsical, beautiful - the whole forest looks alight with blazing fires - what a perfect description of Autumn. Good luck in the contest. Had an emergency op, my two arteries on my one foot blocked and I had to have an angioplastic - had to go through my groin. Recuperating with my poetry and computer on my lap. Hubby is the best nurse ever! Hugs and blessings, Jennifer. Hugs and blessings,

Too soon. I hope summer lasts forever. I don't want to even think about fall. If anyone posts a poem about winter... I will hunt them down. Nevertheless... well penned my friend.
