Leaf on Fire

Fall has come to my town.

It sets the leafs on fire.

Their flaming colors warm my heart.

Today the autumn storm sends them flying.

Like bright confetti in the wind,

they come tumbling down. 

Down from the tall trees,

onto the pavement, 

where they again catch my eye.

I pick one up and bring it home to me,

to let it warm my heart, 

just a little longer.

Wishing you a bright day,

XO

Full of color

These fields full of wild flowers are just around the corner of our home. The barren lands are intended for more house to be build, until that time they are beautiful patches of bright colors!
Equally beautiful: the leaves that have turned golden on the trees.

Wishing you a colorful day!
