Autumn leaves drift down,

Beauty fades as time rushes

Life, too, feels so brief.

    Very vibrant image, caught my eyes immediately. Nice choice. Starting with the movement of the leaves. The beauty how it fades and linking that back to the way life can be. You packed a lot in a little. Nice work Anthony 🤗❤️
