This week I searched my archives to find something that I hadn't posted and found this image of a Burning Bush from my Mom's yard that I took last October. At that time it was just beginning to change colors to its vibrant scarlet foliage. It was already full of the small red-orange fruit it bears in the fall. I hope you enjoy.
Waste no tears
Upon the blotted record of lost years,
But turn the leaf, and smile, oh! smile, to see
The fair white pages that remain for thee.”
~Ella Wheeler Wilcox
(American poet and writer 1850-1919)

Beautiful colors. My neighbor's burning bush is now all beige and twiggy. Look forward to watching the little spring buds popping up on the bushes.
Fall colors are nice any time of the year. Soon you will have flowers again. I like the poem.
Beautiful autumn colours! But I'm longing fors spring now :)
Love that flying squirrel in your last blog. Great capture!
We are getting a little bit more snow today...pictures like this are beginning to make me long for spring! Just to see color again.

I don't know the tree, but a beauty she was!
Aren't the pretty when the entire plant has changed colors?
A lovely combination. Thank you for the verse/advice, it is most apt to your picture and to life.

I liked both the picture and the poem.
I think I have one just like this in my garden. The tiny reds add charms to the plant. Nice picture.
