Autumn at Lan Su Chinese Gardens, Portland, Oregon
Autumn on my porch, Portland, Oregon
Autumn at Butchart Gardens, Victoria, B.C.
October gave a party;
The leaves by hundreds came,—
The Ashes, Oaks, and Maples,
And leaves of every name.
The sunshine spread a carpet,
And every thing was grand;
Miss Weather led the dancing;
Professor Wind, the band....
The sight was like a rainbow
New-fallen from the sky....
~George Cooper, "October’s Party"
Autumn has arrived
Suddenly, as just over night
The beauty astounds
