Falling Leaves

Fall is the most beautiful time of the year for me, with its blushing Apples and fruitful trees dressed in zesty rubious healthy leaves with Luminous fruit hanging off its stems, like galas, granny smiths, and fuji Leaves of multi colored sunburnt shades of yellow, gold and brown Inside the orchard, ladders, bushels, straw hats and farmer pant- grins No better place to be then underneath an Autumn tree when every Golden leaf shimmer-shimmies before swiveling down at your feet Leaves that dance and shuffle-shake before landing in your hands Earthing to the ground covering you with giant leafy dry crispy limbs Arrest the night, stop the moon, hold the stars, its time to listen to the Voices of the night, the falling leaves have their sorrowful story to tell Ease into their season with a quiet soul. Help them say goodbye to the Summer. After all it is the season of Autumn, a time for falling leaves. September 27, 2021
