Fifty Per Cent Off Your Summer Body
The two children were thin and hungry when their (loving, probably) father led them deep, deep, and deeper into the forest. Two days later, they're weary, dehydrated, their clothes ragged, and their pale, strawberries-and-cream-skin scratched. They are also, not to put too fine a point on it, thoroughly lost.

I can't get over the photo choice here. Very lovely. I love how deeply thought out this was. Linking the leaves to the phoenix. Then having our minds eye meet the resplendent burning gowns. Nice work. 🤗❤️
This was a creative way to look at fall! Nice job!
I love this! Such a creative way to look at it!
This is, as I believe the kids are probably not even saying anymore, MY JAM. This whole topic, this theme. October is my favourite colour. I love Autumn: the hot chocolate and big jumpers, cozy nights in, log fires, rain on the window, a good book. Crisp mornings, crunchy leaves underfoot, the full caboodle. The messages blowing about cheap and crackly: appreciate the good stuff while it's here. Find beauty and light even when things are darkening. All that jazz. I've written more about it here: "Summer Leaves" (a wanky poem) - https://shopping-feedback.today/poets/summer-leaves%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E Here: "The Phoenix Tree" (microfiction): https://shopping-feedback.today/fiction/the-phoenix-tree%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E And here (a whole bleddy book): https://shopping-feedback.today/writers/my-second-book-baby-is-crowning%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E So YES I love this challenge. The hard part is condensing the universe of Autumn into a singularity 🧐
resplendent burning gowns is a sublime phrase! excellent entry, LC!
Whoaaa, phoenix dresses the trees in resplendent burning gowns! I freaking loved that!
