Dogwood Leaves in Autumn


One last glorious
Blaze against the sky. Dying,
 Wind's bright kites, they fall . . .


 

Leaving hope tight-furled
On the twig . . . mute reminder . . .
Fall's promise of Spring.

I'm clinging on to the hope, as autumn weaves its magic.

And those buds on the dogwood promise a bright spring.

Very beautiful, all four...words, photos, leaves, buds. Sky, branches, trees, those more ephemeral thoughts of fall and spring.
