The Wind, the Rain, and the Leaves

After all of my work cleaning up pine straw and fallen leaves on Sunday,

I was looking forward to opening the back door this morning

and stepping out onto a clean deck.

But it seems my work was for naught.

Overnight, there was a little breeze, a little rain,

and a lot of fallen leaves all over every surface.

The leaf cover was more than this:

But not as much as this:

It was a little more like this:

Even so, it was more than I wanted to see.

But that's why they call it "Fall."
