Yesterday, I found a leaf in my neighbor’s yard. She is gone for a few days; so, I stole it.
It’s the first leaf of autumn I’ve found. It is mostly brown, but part of it is a rich orange.
The first leaf of autumn! And, there will be many more.
I was reminded of these words from Emily Bronte.
“Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree.”
Happy autumn! May your autumn contain moments of bliss.
–Joy
