Fallen Leaves

While the trees fight to hold their changing leaves, the Autumn rains begin to fall. Struggle as they may, the falling rain drops gathering on leaf surfaces become too much and the leaves begin their slow drift into the puddles forming on the ground. One by one the leaves will drift until the trees are bear and soon enough the rain drops will go through their change and they too will drift from the skies, collecting not in puddles, but in drifts of white snow. Luckily, those days seem to be in still in the future even though the temperatures are dropping with each passing day.
