Playing with shadows in the woods
A bench beneath a ruined tree
Ruined yet proud against the canopy
A sculpted leaf adorns a bench
And water gleams beneath the trees
Delight in a child’s painted aqueduct
While a curious hedgehog looks on
A moth alights on curling brown
Autumn leaves, brilliant in the shade
Leaf shadows gently caressing a tree
A nostalgic look at Autumn because I shan’t be here for most of it. Nice to remember it at its best, in dappled sun and shade (and each with six words, if you run the gallery). Dawn is sharing Festival of Leaves if you’d like to join in.
‘Good morning, leaf’ says Mr. Caterpillar
And the leaves blush and nod
Next week I’m off to the Algarve again, for quite a long spell this time. I won’t be posting for a little while as I shall be without Internet. Sighs with relief! I have one more walk for you on Monday. Have a great weekend, and a wonderful Autumn, and I’ll be back when I can.
Meantime, Debbie is sharing some superb photos of Vietnam. Join her for Six Word Saturday?

Such lovely early autumn pictures there – and very cleverly labelled with six words each. 🙂

It was a short Autumn for me this year. It’ll be Winter by the time I’m back 🙂 🙂
