The fall palette of colors is beautiful.
Thank you, Sheryl! Autumn was showing us some gorgeous “dyes” last weekend!
The photo – incredible. The poem, harder to ‘get.’ But yes, the dyes of fall here in NE are …to die for. 🙂
Thanks, Pam! 🙂 I picture Emily dissatisfied with the dull colors of her knitting yarns, wishing for colors as vibrant and vivid as those found on Autumn’s leaves. (Or on flamingos!)
PS – I got your pun! 😉
Lovely colours here too. But sadly there are more leaves on the ground than on the trees now.
Your autumn must have peaked before ours, of course. I’m glad we got out last weekend to see the colors – they were stunning! Expecting the remnants of Hurricane Patricia today and I’m sure the rains will remove the last of the “dyes.”
