Fire red, peach-orange,

and golden yellow leaves

flutter to the earth.

The lush green trees

and bushes I once knew

are now on fire.

Scarlet,

pink sunset,

dandelion yellow

overtake the trees.

How can death

create such beauty?

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

Very descriptive. I love it. I can rather connect. Thank you for sharing this!
