We need some refreshment.
Lovely North American autumn colours.
But is that an apartment building in the background, or perhaps…………………Trump’s tower?
(Sorry for bringing Captain Bonespurs into it.)
Why are your trees funny colours? Are they injured??
(The only real difference here between winter and summer is that the undergrowth, and most people’s lawns, die off in summer)
October always brings to my mind this poem by Thomas Bailey Aldrich:
MAPLE LEAVES October turned my maple’s leaves to gold; The most are gone now; here and there one lingers: Soon these will slip from out the twigs’ weak hold, Like coins between a dying miser’s fingers.
MAPLE LEAVES
October turned my maple’s leaves to gold;
The most are gone now; here and there one lingers:
Soon these will slip from out the twigs’ weak hold,
Like coins between a dying miser’s fingers.
Seems somehow relevant to both the orange leaves and the orange monster.
