Autmun Leaves

Autumn is my favorite time of year

                                                  springs former glory
                                                                              now crunch
                                                                                          beneath my feet
                                                  yellow

                                                             red
                                                                    and gold
                                                  

                                                   bid adieu to

                                                                      summer splendor

dear Dave... Autumn Splendor leaves me with touches of Gold and Magenta to remember the Seasons where love and Rainbows give their Glory to our Trust. tenderly, Pat

I really liked this review, when I review I like to write poetic responses too.

A nice poem Dave. It triggered an unusual memory for me. I once had my car stolen in early summer. In the fall my wife and I took a long walk around the neighborhood. At one point we veered off onto a side street strewn with autumn leaves. I can still feel them under my feet. Fifty yards on, there was my car, covered with grime and fallen leaves, it was clear it had been parked there a long, long time. I still had the key on the ring in my pocket. I got in and it started right up. Those old, reliable Honda Civics.

This was almost a poem itself, thats a good story.

Those things are vitamins for the soil. And lovely to look at during the fall. In the northern Midwestern part of the US it's quite a lovely site driving around the back roads when the leaves change, right before they fall off the tree. It's quite lovely to witness once a year.

In Oregon there are areas that looke like they are on fire because of the fall colors.

Oh yes, it is a lovely region. I spent some time at Ft Lewis in Washington. I love your part of the country. Although... you can keep the weather. That s**t gets intense.
