autumn leaves dancing float softly on the quickening breeze, tiny ribbons of scarlet and gold drift slowly down.. rustling a plaintive song of farewell the sighing wind combs it's chilly fingers through the sleepy woods whispering it's ancient song across pale blue skies bleached of summers bright hue geese fly...loosed like arrows from a hundred quivers singing their mournful tune as the outflung limbs of the massy trees reach for the last precious moments of warmth from summers fading light.. cool tendrils of woodsmoke and mist enfold the woods... in autumns heart

Hi Candida:

I especially like this phrase: "the sighing wind combs it's chilly fingers through the sleepy woods." I love personification. The most imaginative writers are very good at this. It is the best way to help a reader feel, see, taste, smell and hear.
