There are leaves covering the ground.
Shades of sage green, cardinal red, and russet,
reminding me of the involuntary nature of transformation.
Mother Earth has created a perfume that sits densely in the air.
A  glorious aroma that is smelt solely through the soul.
Ferns and mosses are such underrated wildlife.
Surely the flowers are worth marveling over,
but it is the moss and ferns that lay the landscape of beauty.
They are the backdrop and very essence of this earth
