After I left Adella at basketball practice yesterday morning, I took a little walk where some leaves have escaped the blowers and the rakes.

Each one told a story of life in the elements among birds and squirrels facing storms, dripping with the languid heat of summer, watching the aspens and birches let go of their color first, waiting, waiting, and then making peace with the earth.

Oaks are always one of the last to let go of those storied leaves. Beeches hate to let go too. They always appear to be ghosts in the woods during winter.
ReplyDeleteLove it,
ReplyDeleteWe are all going to get our chance to make our peace with the earth.
Wonderful captures!! I love the frost on the leaves!!
