Northwest Autumn Leaves Rain

the breezes and cool nites here have been mentioning Autumn.....and altho the Northwest could never compete with New England in the LEAVES DEPARTMENT..... it dresses up in it's best bib and tucker to not be a poor relation to New England.....

so ~~voila~~

in the coastal range bright yellow trees to catch your eye

when you add water cascading nearly everywhere you look... the scene you view becomes spectacular

our scenery hasn't reach this point of color intensity yet and really never will

soon all the Northern climes will put on their festive Autumn hues and send Indian Summer off with a fiery bang

i don myself with autumnal passion.... crimson lipped.. apple cheeked.... orangy slippers set awhirling... dancing upward into yellow's flying realm... this is the rain i wait for.... and not to plastic wrap my body against the chilly wetness... clinging to my hat and color bright astounds me.. dancing brightly along the streets and gutters piled ... raked for rosy cheeked children and their happy dogs to rolled in... crinkled whispering far off winter in my ear... to seize the moment with fairies tender grasp.. before my heart and they are set aflame

this is my favorite time of the year.....how about you ???
