The leaves haven't changed here yet. As part of my relaxation therapy today, I wrote this...

 

A stroll through the woods is beauty to behold

Light fiters through tree tops of crimson and gold

 

Colorful leaves rain from tall trees

and swirl to the ground in the light breeze

 

A canopy of scarlet is just overhead

from a tree that is maple of brilliant red

 

A busy squirrel chatters in branches above

while hearing the call of a mourning dove

 

Twigs and small branches snap underfoot

My path is narrowed by hickory tree roots

 

The air is filled with a sweet nutty smell

I decide to sit and rest for a spell

 

Off in the distance I hear a bird sing

and Thank God for the beauty that nature brings

 

Hugs, Robin :-)

I could picture that in my mind. I have a lot of maple trees, squirrels and mourning doves. Thanks Robin, your writing is very descriptive. You always have a way of putting a smile on my face.

Thank you for sharing.

Hugs, Karen

So good! I really hope you are published -- you should be! At the very least, send some samples to Hallmark!

ThankYou all for the nice compliments. I'm putting together a collection of some of my poetry for my grandaughter someday. She is only 3. My hopes are to live long enough for her to remember me, but if I don't she will have a glimpse of some of the things I've enjoyed in life.

Welcome to you, Maddy. I hope you will start a thread to tell us something about yourself!

Hope you all have a wonderful day :)

Hugs, Robin
