Autumn

The air around me is still, and quiet. Leaves spiral vertically to the ground, gradually carpeting the main road. As I step on the road, I feel as though my feet are disappearing into the leaves; I can't see my feet, but I can feel them. As I look above, Lo and Behold! I see trees' canopies faintly glowing in ember in the fading sun..... Date Published: 8/9/2016

You remind me of an 80s song that has the chorus "heaven is a place on earth..." Thank you so much Sunita, for your warm applause!! ;-)
