Pensive Autumn

Prompt: "Come, pensive autumn with thy clouds and and storms and falling leaves and pastures lost to flowers: A luscious charm hangs on thy faded forms, more sweet than summer in her loveliest hours." John Clare Write about this in your Blog entry today.

Autumn is pretty but it is prettier in New England and England and other areas. I live in Indiana. We have orange, green and yellow leaves, flowers growing our trees. We are surrounded by corn fields. I enjoy the rains and we have woods near by. There is beauty. Leaves fall but we don't have trees with leaves. Autumn is nice and I wish it could be our winter. Gentle rains. The smell of rains. Pumpkins. Halloween. Lovely. This quote is so true and I am so glad I could write something about it.
