Dancing in the Autumn sunlight
amidst coffee-colored trunks and wispy branches
with marshmallow fluff and smoky gray clouds floating
in an azure blue sky
above a carpet of fading green grass…

A few bright leaves hang on to life
in bold and brilliant bursts
of crimson and honey and marmalade.

Autumn’s Final Act.

Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi
