Leaf Me Alone

Hanging On
Rowe, Massachusetts
While November winds had swirled most leaves to the ground...
a few seemed suspended in time...
still clinging to the green of summer...
and, ignoring Autumn's kiss...
hung on for dear life.

I was in the bookstore yesterday, looking at a Traveler's National Geographic. I see Western Massachusetts is right up there with a lot of big name places in the world. If a lot of people read that magazine, you had better watch out for the crowds. Beautiful leaf.

Lovely. How many of us can relate to that stubborn leaf?

George said...

We've got a few leaves still hanging on, but they don't have the nice color yours have. We're mostly left with brown leaves on the trees.

Lucy the Cat said...

Hold on, dear leaf! You have such pretty colors!!

The changing seasons - bring amazing colours.

Rae said...

The colors are so pretty and it is unusual to see a leaf hold onto the green like that. It was nice you had one hold out to photograph. It turned out really well.

We're having another day of sunshine. I love sunshine, it just seems to make a person feel so much better. I don't think I could leave in the state of Washington, I've been told they have a lot of dark, dreary, misty days.

When I gather leaves, I always think each one is the prettiest. They are much like snowflakes; each one is different yet a beautiful work of art.

Beautiful reminder of the promise of spring.

You did a very nice job on your leaf photo. The color and the way you captured it is very well done.

Lovely.... I feel like I am just hanging on lately, but this will pass with time, just like the leaf will have to eventually let go, too.

Sandra said...

Hahahaa--LOVE the title! On my blog--some months back I had a piece of art I'd entitled the same way.

JUST GORGEOUS! You are a gifted poet.
