Dogwood leaves in shades of rust and Merlot quiver in the first glow of morning light A squirrel dances with it’s own shadow under a veil of Oak leaves in mid flight Trees dance with the magic of a Twelfth Night Crisp air fills with sounds of Autumn birdsong blue sky and stillness sunlit days prolong Suddenly leaves are whirling, raining down an orange afternoon sings a torch song Still meadow rests in rustic eiderdown.
