Fall Leaves: America's Top Destinations - Farmers' Almanac - Plan Your Day. Grow Your Life.

"Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree." Quote by _ Emily Bronte Autumn brings enchanting dapples and hues, with each tremble and each fluttering breeze; I love a walk to look at all the views, the bright red, yellow, gold, and orange trees ! It makes me feel like God has been painting, with strokes of color created for me; all the trees with sweet vibrant paints staining, I am in a lovely dream filigree ! The smell of decay a sweet divine scent, it drifts and is quite intoxicating; that smell of fermenting I will lament, the odor of Autumn captivating ! Oh, it only stays for a few short weeks; but, is magical with its sublime streaks !

God has been painting… what a beautiful reminder, Constance. And, autumn’s short stay is to always keep it new and too keep us in awe of its beauty. Such passion always fills the verse of your poems.
