Autumn

As the colors start to change            A
under the trees are mounds of leaves  U
to rake and put into the bags               T
until they are packed brim full                 U
marking the end of another season           M
now saying goodbye to summer.                N

When you get ancient, fall is both colorful and sad. Putting yourself with nature seems natural. Good stuff. Love, Dave

I agree when I pull out the flower it is sad that another season is closing. More sad as we get older. love phyl
