I love the colors seen in fall
Ground's wrapped up in a leafy shawl
Drat! I must rake those fallen leaves
Wild winds are whistling in the eaves
My preferred season of them all

I remember the forever autumn song from Bruce Wayne’s war of the worlds, I think Justin Hayward sang it, you describe it’s leafy shawl, he it’s golden gown, you have me thinking of other clothing items that could be relevant to the fallen leaves, congratulations, cheers David

Justin Heyward's forever Autumn is one of my all time fave songs in fact we went to see Jeff (batman lol) Wayne's war of the worlds show in Birmingham in about 2020...if yo ever get the chance to see it do, it is truly spectacular:-) hugs Jan xx

The Situation

A cooling after the heat, a warning of the coming sleet. The evidence of a warm goodbye. The slowly ebbing of a season gone by.
