Dear Fall leaves from my Oaks, Maples, and willows,
I love your glorious colors and textures in my yard.
When the sun reappears I promise to create huge piles of your collective beauty….
and then invite the entire neighborhood to your party
We’ll embrace the wonder of you with giggles as we inhale Mother Nature’s earthiness….
…..all while we wait for your bare branches to silhouette our skies.

Beautiful poem by the Barefoot Baroness.
the generous giving of trees
who cover the earth with a rich
multicolored coat of leaves
from spring and summer
and now arms bare
chest bared
limbs bare
they stand,
they wait, standing, tall
for the cold winds of winter
whilst their leaf gifts
regenerate and restore the earth
Thank you much Noel for the kind comment, but even more for the beauty you shared in your own poem. I have a great affinity for trees and all their parts.
Really a lovely expression of that you share in your words.

Yours was beautiful poetry. Could not but share it!
Hi baroness! It has been a while since I stopped in. Beautiful poem. Most of our leaves are gone now. We are expecting snow this weekend.
Hello PJ!!
Beautiful season Autumn is, in all God’s glory. So good to see you. I am a very neglectful blogger of late, and when I see an old friend it’s like putting on an old sweater. Thank you so much for stopping by and saying hello.
Hope the snow is gentle on you. ~
Haha – love it!
I’m happy Jules. Thank you sweet friend.
