Autumn Time

In the crisp autumn air as the golden sun embraces the countryside devoid of leaves the recent canopy of colours fell like a constant stream of confetti the soft breath of wind blew leaving trees standing naked only the scent of pines hung heavily cooler air carried it's fragrance the crevices clung onto the leaves daring the wind to blow them away others caught in the wind dancing for glee whirling and twirling swaying to and fro in a country wind hoe down.

Love this Phil. The imagery here is perfect. I can see the Autumn wind blowing the leaves across the ground. The colors of the leaves adding to the beauty of the season. A fine write. Good luck in the contest. A winner in my book. God Bless, JB
