Autumn leaves in the Mt Lofty Botanic Gardens

I love autumn.

Not only is the weather where I live very pleasant – most of the time – but we also have the delight of watching the leaves turn colour and fall, blanketing the ground in a carpet of gold. It’s the stuff of poetry.

Talking of poetry: how about writing a poem about autumn, autumn leaves or beautiful, calm, balmy weather. Or anything else today’s photos inspire?

Good writing.

Autumn leaves in Bright, Victoria

On a recent caravanning holiday in the high country of Victoria, Australia, we visited the beautiful town of Bright.

The trees in the district were magnificent, showing numerous colours of autumn.

Writing prompt: write about the colours of autumn in your part of the world. Perhaps a poem describing the colours, or a short story where the leaves of autumn play a significant part of the plot.
