No photos of autumn this time

Sadly, I have no photos of autumn this time

I was far too busy

Watching the motion of the falling leaves

The way they sang

One last song. 🍁

I was too caught up

Walking through groves of gold

More precious than gems and stones

And so much more fleeting. 🍂

I was unable to tear myself away

From gardens cloaked in autumnal rainbows

Gently nudged by a frosty wind

To surrender to winter. 🍃

Now all I have left to photograph

Is a lone tree in a carpeted park

That refuses to acknowledge the advent of December

Like me, it was too wrapped up in nature's magic

To notice the passage of time. ⏳
