Fall

old leaves are falling sailing, reluctant, kiss death the fragile air breaks healing hearts are letting go love letters, clutched until now ? 2010

oh, no, are they going to throw their love letters away?? I could never do that! I love how you combined the letters with that melancholy feeling fall gives us. And the letting go. . . . thanks for the heads up on my typo. LUv, Andrea ps, my captcha says NUTS. hahaha.
