Autumn arrives! Kissed by the sun’s warmth the leaves become flowers! Blushing with molten color, they dance in the cinnamon spiked breeze. Taking in the apple cider and pumpkin pie aromas, warmth and wonder fills the atmosphere.

Autumn leaves fly free like dancing butterflies pirouetting in the wind. A falling leaf gently brushes your cheek on its way to the ground, leaving behind a memory. It whispers: So long, farewell.

Seeing its tree from below the leaf thinks, “My tree stands strong and tall, and life will go on”. It merges with the cool earth to exist beyond you.
