A wind tossed salad...

Today was quite the opposite of yesterday's decadent 'slice of summer'

Yes today we are served up a generous helping of mess...

  

A cheeky wind has arrived...
and blown the sun clear out the sky :(
 leaving dusty whirlwinds as she went by...

 The afternoon has unfolded...
 clouds have been piled up high...
like Autumn leaves i passed...

Fetching the kids from school was interesting though...
I watched as the wind rolled through this town...
giving the trees a good shake...
to see what falls down...

Leaves rained down...yellow and brown...
where before they 'floated'...they now 'fell'...
thick and fast...

They were a-scurrying...a-hurrying...
turning...and churning...this way...then that...
a wind tossed salad...
the drama of the skies...
 now on the ground...

I enjoyed the show...
 and one thing i know...
only leaves not yet ready to fall...
are still on those branches...
waiting their turn...

Foot Note
I am really not sure why this kind of thing excites me...
I just find it beautiful to watch the changes of the seasons...
I have decided i am quite a 'visual' person...
