Here, in the soft, sweet-smelling haze,
a maple stands alone, a blaze of color,
stirring memories of rustic lanes and giant trees;
and there, along the curb for miles -
the leaves raked up in equal piles.
Could there be anything we know that can
evoke the wondrous glow of childhood
more than trampling leaves?
How clearly, then, the soul perceives -
amid the miracle of fall,
that we are Children, one and all.
Oh, let me never grow too old
to be bewitched by autumn's gold -
to share the overwhelming joy within
the heart of that small boy who runs amuck
when he perceives these tempting,
ordered piles of leaves
.Jean S. Platt
Good Morning !
Is it Monday already! Yesterday seems a blur, but I did get some well needed rest. Off to work again this morning ! We get a few summer like days the beginning of the week and then back to fall . It’s going down into the 50’s for a high toward the end of the week! Sweater weather for sure !
***BIG SMILE***
Have a blessed Day !
