Sun rises ever so slowly into palest blue sky with edges tinged in pink
–
October threw a wild party in the night
–
Flower petal snowflakes and Maple leaf confetti strewn all around the carpet of green lawn
–
Daisies wilted to half mast
–
Hummingbirds chatter across the way and insist on sipping the last drops of lavender nectar
–
Sparrow nearly collides with hummingbird who gives him a rant about common courtesy
–
In the evening a near-harvest moon rises slowly over the hills and sunset pours over the snow topped mountain peak in delightful shades of pink sherbet dessert
–
Autumn knows how to throw a splendid goodbye party for summer.
