Autumn Things

Autumn colors are getting better every day here in South Jersey.

Like this. Click to enlarge.

And this.

And -- from my favorite poet, Rainer Maria Rilke, a stanza from the poem "Autumn:" 


 
The leaves are falling, falling as if from far up,
as if orchards were dying high in space.
Each leaf falls as if it were motioning “no.”
