“Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality.”
-Cheshire Cat
Fall by Emma
Red, orange, and brown leaves crunch under my feet as I make my way through the forest. Sunlight is streaming through the branches above my head, creating little spots of light on the ground around me. I lift my face, letting the warmth of the light caress it. Sounds of nature surround me, welcoming me. A bubbling stream invites me to drink from it. I hike up to it and dip my hands into the clear, cold water. Slurping the water, I feel it start to cool my body off. This is a beautiful place; I could stay here forever. Sleep my days away in the sunlight.
However, I should be collecting firewood. Now is not the time to be caught out after dark. I continue to pick my way through the forest, gathering bits of wood on the way. Just as I turn around and head back, something catches my eye. Am I seeing things?
