Fall's Lasting Impression

Furiously blushing Sumac, blended with yellow leafed maple adorned with now naked vines. Subdued in evening shadows falling, the sound of whippoorwills calling intoxicating the mind. Fall’s lasting impression speaks of higher design. The small critters getting fatter, looking for a warm safe haven. The mocking bird and raven long since following its instinct. See how it all falls into place, how so smooth is nature’s twine. Fall’s lasting impression speaks of higher design. It’s time to stop and meditate, on higher deeds than men impose. Of how and why sweet repose, goes hand in hand with nature’s bent to sit and wait with full intent, to sleep and rest for a time. Fall’s lasting impression speaks of higher design. © Oct 31 2010 Charles Henderson 1 st in Catie's "Focus on Syllables" contest
