Autumn

When I wasn't looking,



fall crept in.



Days grew short.



Leaves blazed,



and made a quilt.



While my back was turned,



the last goldenrod bloomed,



and summer flew away.

I love fall though it's very short here in Montana. I'm envious of all your beautiful color.

That is a great post.

I wish our Canadian Geese would fly away and stay away. How come they call them Canadian Geese if they never go to Canada, anyway.

Fall really lasts only a couple of weeks here in the Ozarks. I anticipated it all year, and then got busy and nearly missed it entirely.

Loved your pictures.

Really good photos and commentary. Felt like I was reading a book of poetry. :)
