There is this way in which, each fall, the time
stretching into winter , the Maple leaves dry into a bright golden brown, and
in falling, become caught in the grand branches of the Pines and the Fir and
the Spruce, and lay there in amongst all of the green.
The most vivid decorations, in the morning and
evening's golden light.
We have the answering call, of the Pine needles, which dry into long elegant light clusters, and fall downward, catching upon the Maples, and too, the Oak and Beech ; tender hanging clusters of needles fluttering gently in the wind. The whole of the Maples, now bare, decorated so beautifully.
And so, from fall into winter, the two live side-by-side; the Evergreens- , the Pines, the Fir, the Spruce, and then the Maples and Beech and Oaks .
And you'll walk through areas of forest, and come upon these trees, decorating each other, the leaves and Pine needles burnished golden, strewn about each other, shining on a frozen white winter's day.
