The colors of green dissolve from a deep red to a bright orange and finally fades into a pale yellow. As the brown leaf falls to the ground, the wind takes it away into the neighbor's yard. The dead leaf is then raked into a pile with other leaves that have fallen from trees that use to have vivid colors of summer. The simple fallen leaf then becomes like the other leaves, nothing but debris to be swept away into a garbage bag. The season changes are felt with the cool breeze that lessen the brightness of the sun. As our life transitions into a the last months of the year, I can't help but wonder what the future will bring.
Will the trees survive winter and be more fruitful then this past summer? Or will they simply rot away from the lack of TLC? Life slowly fades away sooner this time of year.... I miss the summer and the bright sun smiling on the world. I miss long days outdoors and coming inside to a refreshing ice cold bottle of water.
Summer is long gone now and so are you. Will it ever come back again the way it use to? Or is this how it's going to be from now on, dead leaves everywhere? Seasons change, people change, and every time it's never the same. I can only hope when spring comes, the leaves grow brighter then ever.
"Fate fell short this time, your smile fades in the summer...."
