and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth

seeking the successive autumns."

"Autumn is a second spring

when every leaf is a flower."

Albert Camus

a running flame through the mountains,

a torch flung to the trees."

Faith Baldwin

as I have seen in one Autumnal face."

John Donne

lighting the way to winter."

"Wild is the music of autumnal wind

 among the faded woods."

"For man, autumn is a time of harvest,

of gathering together.

For nature, it is a time of sowing,

of scattering abroad."
