its bold yellow color incongruous in death
the first breath of winter wind holds it gently
and then abandons it 
moving across the icy field 
lulling the landscape to sleep

Slowly turning from green to brown wilting and withering away back into the Earth's crevices. The air is chilled and it getting dark sooner. Sadness is taking over the next few months. no life, no leaf’s, no grass, and no corn just the frozen water floating in the air. ]]> 2022-09-08 12:39:13 UTC https://padlet.com/laura_desena/frtoyuvo8onsdqcp/wish/2288100566 https://padlet.com/laura_desena/frtoyuvo8onsdqcp/wish/2288100872 leaves carry into the air
an assortment of warm tones
like a palette in the hands of time
when the sun and wind come
together to paint the sky
with strokes of autumn’s colors]]> 2022-09-08 12:39:24 UTC https://padlet.com/laura_desena/frtoyuvo8onsdqcp/wish/2288100872 https://padlet.com/laura_desena/frtoyuvo8onsdqcp/wish/2288112056 Though it's time has passed, and it's time to go
The leaf isn't alone in the end
It falls to meet the grass who waits patiently
The world has grown cold, and it will soon be forgotten
But it's glad to spend it's final moments with a friend

a burnt sea of dry blades silently ripple
taking with them shadows of the past
holds the weight of fallen leaves
descended from above
stagnant and still
until it is time to be reborn.

sitting calm in his patch, his friends are falling. The days are coming for when he’ll be gone, but to him it feels really long. It’ll be a big deal but for now he’ll sit in his field]]> 2022-09-08 12:56:27 UTC https://padlet.com/laura_desena/frtoyuvo8onsdqcp/wish/2288130075 https://padlet.com/laura_desena/frtoyuvo8onsdqcp/wish/2288175379 the earth falls still, silence reaches the scortched lands as the trials of survival begin assortments of reds and oranges expire into crimson, cries of the once blossoming blooms are rejected by the sounds of leaves shriveling and shivering, they are aged and wrinkled
cold
vivid colors brought by warmth slowly drained by the inevitable winter infecting everything in its sight, leaving a path of demise and destruction in its wake

The sky gains color upon color
becoming painted with every hue
Every one a tribute of what is being lost
A beautiful condolence to a rapidly fading world]]> 2022-09-08 13:24:56 UTC https://padlet.com/laura_desena/frtoyuvo8onsdqcp/wish/2288179930 https://padlet.com/laura_desena/frtoyuvo8onsdqcp/wish/2288836491 As everything shifts, so does the mood
from so bright and beautiful loud and vibrant to more blank more quiet and more empty 
 it gets to the point where its mute
 there's nothing to see outside.
the world is freezing and all forms of life who could escape have fled indoors. 
as I start to see the leaves shift and tumble down I start to think about the quiet world I'll soon see when I look out my window. ]]> 2022-09-08 20:30:53 UTC https://padlet.com/laura_desena/frtoyuvo8onsdqcp/wish/2288836491
