Sweeping Fall

Red Yellow Leaves fall down Sweep left, sweep right Gather them in Autumn’s wicker baskets Nature’s colourful treasures swirling down Ground set afire Rake in hand Garden Cleared 08.25.2021 Photo #3 For Eve Roper's "Double Tetractys 8" contest

Wonderful Jo. Love the line "ground set afire." I also like the cadence of the words "sweep left, sweep right." I can hear the sound of rakes. Blessings to you. Best wishes for the contest.
