Even though I'm not "entering" the yellow challenge, here's a bit of yellow anyway :)

ReachingOaksReddenedByTheSun

Reach young oak,
Reddened by the sun,
Take the sky and hold it tightly,
make ready for winters come,
drop your acorns, hats and all
to litter the ground below you
tucked neatly folded
in your falling leaves
becoming possibility next season

Oaken broken branches unfallen,
dried; hang in waiting
for someone to drag them away.

PaintingTheOakTreesRed

Jade Lyf (moderator)

Those who paint the colours of fall,
will splash red the leaves of the oaks,
fall all who wearily weather the seasons,
heaped in a crunching pile to blow south
for the winter
