Acorns

Soon fall will start
Tall Oaks blow in chill winds
Dropping acorns
Food for woodland folk
As nights draw in
A long catnap awaits








4th place in 'Life without U & ME'

Congrats Nick!! This was such a beautiful write about fall-- couldn't help but feel those chilly winds and see those acorns--sort of reminded me of Enid Blyton's writes (one of my favorite children's authors), actually ---nikko :)
