Favorite Quote:
"Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent." -Eleanor Roosevelt


The trees catch on fire,

Glass leaves shattered under feet,

Red and orange death.


The author's comments:

While everybody acknowledges that fall is a beautiful season filled with colors and change, very few of us realize that this beauty is caused by the death of the leaves and that this beauty is only seen after it is too late; the leaves are already dead.
