WW: Lonely Leaf after November Rain

Single Autumn Leaf Photo
"There is music in the meadows, in the air -
Autumn is here;
Skies are gray, but hearts are mellow,
Leaves are crimson, brown, and yellow;
Pines are soughing, birches stir,
And the Gipsy trail is fresh beneath the fir.

There is rhythm in the woods, and in the fields,
Nature yields:
And the harvest voices crying,
Blend with Autumn zephyrs sighing;
Tone and color, frost and fire,
Wings the nocturne Nature plays upon her lyre."
 - William Stanley Braithwaite, Lyric of Autumn

    It must be sad to be the last leaf standing.

The four sided dagger beads are different lengths and embraced by sterling silver wrap with surgical steel earwires.
