All the leaves are sighing, so weary are they. It is deep summer. Flowers in profusion of colors, bursting with their last heralding of falls coming frosty nights, that will send them into a deep sleep, and then the awakening of the trees finale of colors bright, red and yellow and orange, announcing their final dance in colored clothing gay, before they too sleep winters deep slumber, when frost will encase their branches in diamond crowns of iridescent ice, as white royal robes of winter, cover the hibernating seeds of spring.

How I love your poetic musings and masterful imagings. This one reminding us of how soon we are conditioned by the various seasons- lovely in their own right, to begin to desire the next as life goes on. It is a lovely description of the changing of the seasonal guards! David WOW- another day of life-and here among friends! Ain't God Grand! |

Ellie~ Ya' sure got a way with words, lady ! I love the season of fall ... but glad I don't have the snow to contend with.  Lovely images. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

I really like this, Ellie. The changing of the seasons are my favorite times of the year, and fall is by far my favorite season. Joanna What better way to become immortal than to wake up each day and write? Ray Bradbury |

You can paint a mental image as vivid as real colors on a cavas. Very good work. Who would have thought a good little girl like you could destroy my beautiful wickedness. |

Very picturistic.. *sighs at spelling*  I really enjoyed reading this and the images it brought to mind.. Forgotten memories of the Smokies in all their fall glory..  With a little piece of tomorrow, You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye. Because today won't last forever, And the past will only make you cry. |
