Love the title ... my neck of the woods is far from stripped yet ... too many leaves on the oaks ... beautiful picture painted here, Brian!

I see that scene from our window, looking back behind our house, through skeletons of oak trees, that have lost their leaves. Forlorn poem, but so descriptive! ~ Carrie
