Maple

as it is..

the back of a mirror,

leaves turn into flames

and after the walking

you shake your coat like a wet dog;

the rain waters your smile,

you trail autumn into the hall

Great imagery, I could literally see this. Very enjoyable reading :)

As always, so descriptive and yet brief, pithy and full of painted artistic brilliance Leslie. Simply wonderful, could see the scene.

and as we leave fall behind....shake it off, so to speak....we see ourselves in winter....and the mirror cracks a bit with sadness.
