I went on my morning walk,
autumn leaves everywhere,
on the tree canopy
twirling, falling,
leaves on the ground.
I saw the Chinese rain tree leaves
with patterns of green and yellow.
they were attractive.
I thought I can make some craft,
and I picked some.
Sitting in backyard sun,
I made some pieces
with other flowers and foliage,
hung them with jute twine
from a door, rustic décor,
to add festive cheer.
All my efforts are
focused on sustainability,
bonding with nature,
and environment protection.
I kept some leaves for the
school-going daughter.
Always inspired from mother,
she will want to make her own.
And that’s how I bask in a season,
take offerings from nature,
and satisfy creative urges.
Note: Do you make such nature arts?

Oooo, that's so nice! Your daughter would have fun too. I don't make any kinda art, not my thing
I have made wreaths like your image as well as taking pinecones and taking clue and sprinkling glitter on them with string to hang on trees in and outdoors. Pinecones also make good bird feeders-just spread peanut butter over them and sprinkle birdseed all over them and hang on trees outside. Good work on your projects and poem.
