FIRST PLACE

"Autumn leaves drop down like gold, like 
stained glass, like rainbows to flutter away."

                                                              Quote by _Constance

Wide Fall Really Good

Stained Glass Autumn

 
I will turn back, back the pages, to my childhood and autumn trees; lovely- the decaying stages, leaves hued fluttering in the breeze ! Lived in a cabin- I cherished, I will turn back, back the pages; oh, hated that the leaves perished, divine colors as each ages ! The gold leaves shone like sun sages, the maples dressed in crimson red; I will turn back, back the pages, where orange, purple, and gold bled ! This memory I keep- sublime, oh, then the wind comes and rages; and stained glass leaves drift into time, I will turn back, back the pages !
