Air Is Cooler Amid Kamikaze Leaves

Sun visits in sharp fractal shadows through the oaks
Lunate leaves glide effortlessly toward her mushrooms
Raining leaf flow is constant, scarlet and amber go next. 

Xiphoid brown performs perfect kamikaze from Cottonwood
The air is cooler today, squirrels are chattering their delight.
Chasing through leaf piles. I begin to see their high up nests.

Contrast to tree bark which has turned slim and dark. 
Vitriform spider web glistens with a pronounced shininess
Moist from gentle rain on this Thanksgiving week.
