autumn leaves are musical,
a song of clouds and wind.
red, orange, yellow, brown
a color wheel in time.
Fall is the best time of year.
While burning leaves isn't something you smell much anymore (and that's a good thing) it is a powerful aroma which instantly creates vivid pictures in the mind.
So many fall frolics are special because the things we enjoy - a trip to the orchard; time around a bonfire; a walk through fallen leaves; raking - each becomes a mile post on the road to winter.

you can't wait for next season
last season is over, a new begins
in our rush to tomorrow - we lose track of today
jousting with summer a last time, we rest.
maybe this fall we enjoy the day - the colors - before they're gone.
------------
Forget raking - more leaves fall tomorrow
Autumn is crisp air and crisper leaves
Looking from here to December... it's a long way to go
Live. Live. Be alive. Breathe in, breathe out. It's time.
