Zombie Sticks + Autumn Leaf Of The Day #20

 

Leaves descending to the ground,
Orange, magenta, green & brown
The cool crisp breezes in the air,
Autumn season must be here”

I don't know... even dead thistle from the summer makes me smile in autumn. I am not happy about their death, they are bright purple when in full bloom, and nasty to step through as well, but even in death they have the loveliest shape, and are downright photogenic against other weeds finding the end of their season. The child in me sees thin spiky monsters, or maybe plant zombies Summer spills over into autumn in so many ways, and I am grateful for every last bit of it.
