Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns. ~George Eliot

Everyone must take time to sit and watch the leaves turn. ~Elizabeth Lawrence

A Carpet of Autumn Color. by BamaWester style=

A wind has blown the rain away and blown the sky away and all the leaves away, and the trees stand. I think, I too, have known autumn too long. ~E. E. Cummins

Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. ~Albert Camus

Autumn leaves | Rikugien, Tokyo by jamesjustin

falling leaves
hide the path
so quietly
~John Bailey

No shade, no shine, no butterflies, no bees,
No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds - November!
~Thomas Hood

No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace
As I have seen in one autumnal face.
~John Donne

Autumn Glow by Martha Mier (piano by Witali1991)

More quotes here.

She goes up the hill to catch a handful of bokeh...

...Then she walks back and they followed her downhill.

I was trying to convince Pia to go up the hill with me. But she was too scared of the dog up there. She stayed on the bench below playing with some toys she just got from Jude's birthday party.

(better when viewed large)

The greenery was enticing and, I guess, the hill was too good for Pia to pass. So, even though she was kinda scared, she joined me in the end.

We had fun running up and down the hill until we had to go. The night was getting cold. It was goodbye to summer. We had to bid farewell to this day, too...
