An Autumn Leaf



A colorful leaf floating in our pond makes it all real!
Summer really truly is over and fall is here to stay!



"No Spring nor Summer Beauty hath such grace
As I have seen in one Autumnal face."
- John Donne



"October gave a party;
The leaves by hundreds came-
The Chestnuts, Oaks, and Maples,
And leaves of every name.
The Sunshine spread a carpet,
And everything was grand,
Miss Weather led the dancing,
Professor Wind the band."
- George Cooper, October's Party
