' trees slowly shedding their leaves. ' Before this happens, they change into many vibrant colors. So beautiful, indeed. Autumn has arrived, which means cooler temps and warm blankets. Congratulations John, on Poem of the Week. My best to you. :) Hugs, Brandy

I am still yearning for time at the pool. I had to get out a cardigan this morning and I cried a little bit. Autumn's demise, is a great description of what winter is. Good job.
