Garden Autumn colours

The leaves are falling fast and furious now and when the sun shines we have some colour left to enjoy before the starkness of winter sets in next month. The red bush is Cotinus coggria.

LATE LEAVES

The leaves are falling; so am I;

The few late flowers have moisture in the eye;

So have I too.

Scarcely on any bough is heard

Joyous, or even unjoyous bird

The whole wood through.

Sorry Walter - did see a wren and treecreeper in garden to gladden my heart.
