INDIAN SUMMER

INDIAN SUMMER  
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Autumn comes as a chariot of nature's flame. From woodland browns are born reds and golds to warm heart and soul. The leaves, like flags waving in every sweet breeze, swirl in a wind-choreographed dance. Soon they rest upon the forest floor, embracing their destiny to feed each earthen wintry root.

seasonal trustees
summertime takes final bow
fall heeds her calling

starry autumn night
season brings artistic hand
harvest abundance
