My favorite season....
I think fall is my favorite season. The fall foliage is so beautiful… the trees look amazing when their leaves turn red, orange, yellow, green and brown. Most of the trees have lost their leaves by now, but they don’t look sad or pathetic. Quite unlike Cornelius, the peacock... when Cornelius had all his feathers he would stand in the parking lot and show-off by spreading out his colorful plumage. I don’t know who he was showing-off to. The only audience I saw was one lonely squirrel. Once he lost his feathers he looked so bewildered and a little bit embarrassed. The trees aren’t like Cornelius, they still stand proud. Maybe we can learn from the trees… don’t show-off… that way you won’t have anything to be ashamed of later on.
