November sets emerald leaves ablaze, igniting flames of scarlet and cerise. And as long nights overshadow short days, Mother Nature unveils Her masterpiece. Scarecrows are left guarding empty gardens, while Jack Frost's brush colors the dying leaves. And two Thanksgiving turkeys get pardons as Fall's brisk breezes strip the trees like thieves. Autumn adopts an orange undertone, as the fields are gleaned and canopies thinned. And the naked trees get stripped to the bone, skeletal branches rattling in the wind. December triggers the death throes of Fall, whereas the flowers all shrivel and die. And the geese fly south with a honking call; trumpeting, that Winter will soon drop by.

I still have not heard the geese but I am sure that I have missed them. I do enjoy hearing and seeing them if I possibly can. Thanks for sharing this winner. Way to go. Congratulations. Sara
