Autumn Wishes

Shades of red were in the process of taking over the green of the leaves that hung on the tree. I noted the change in color on my drive home today. I smiled. Those changing leaves mean more than cooler temperatures and robust colors around town. They also mean the prospect of the first frost and a happy good riddance to the ragweed pollen that has been creating havoc in my sinuses the last three weeks.

Bring on the leaves of red and orange, as well as the frozen dew of autumn...please.
