They look like they have little fires inside each one.
ReplyDeleteThey do Katherine: that's the secret of their beauty but only Special People see them.
DeleteThese can well be counted with the reasons why I love this time of the year.
ReplyDeleteMost people seem to name Spring as their favourite time of year but I'm an Autumn lover. Possibly because I'm also a lover of Keats and the words of his Ode to Autumn have followed me since childhood. My love was heightened when I used to visit the English Lake District in Autumn and the colours and feeling in the air were beyond my powers of description.
DeleteGB, could your love of autumn be connected to the fact that you don't have to face a British winter afterwards?
DeleteOurs look like that too. I think I had some in my Friday Picture Book post.
ReplyDeleteMonica I recall that. It must have been a couple of weeks ago.

We don't have these trees here, but then again we don't have any mountains, so maybe that's why.
ReplyDeleteThey're pretty and I love the red berries.
They are not hot-country trees I don't think Virginia.
