Jumping Wildly Into The Middle Of Autumn

"Ah, lovely October, as you usher in the season
 that awakens my soul, your awesome beauty compels my spirit to soar like an leaf caught in an autumn breeze
 and my heart to sing like a heavenly choir."

~Peggy Toney Horton 

 "After the keen still days of September, the October sun filled the world with mellow warmth. The maple tree in the front of the doorstep burned like a gigantic red torch. The Oaks along the roadway glowed yellow and bronze. The fields stretched like a carpet of jewels, emerald and topaz and garnet. Everywhere she walked the color shouted and sang around her... In October any wonderful unexpected thing might be possible."

~Elizabeth George Speare

"The smell of burning firewood and molding of organic, earthly substances reminded her jumping wildly into the enormous leaf piles of autumns past and she suddenly wished that it was appropriate for someone her age to do such a thing!"
