Pumpkin trees, Cranberry trees, Canary trees by Raymond A. Foss
At the far end of the manicured lawn, the field really, rolling up toward the horizon line, up above the fringe by the stonewall the road I travel on a ridgeline, a frame to the green, the grass pines and still-unchanged oaks to be sure; but pumpkin trees, cranberry trees, canary trees all radiant in the bright fall light, shimmering, their moment of glory to reveal Pause as I pass, linger on the road take in the wonder of the brilliant color waiting to be seen
