📷 🍁 Stunning leaves changing color in New Hampshire -- photos and a short poem! My #SteemitPhotoChallenge Autumn Foliage entry!

There is nothing quite like fall in New England! I'm so thrilled to see "autumn foliage" as this week's photo challenge theme! It's just so tough to ONLY choose three pictures as entries! With that said, thank you for allowing me to give you the tiniest photo tour of southern New Hampshire and to share a short poem with you! 😊

And a look up under the canopies at Valley Cemetery in Manchester, NH! Look at that painter's canvas!

Seeing the leaves change reminds me of a short lyric I'd once heard that I later found out was written by Yoko Ono:

“Spring passes and one remembers one's innocence.
Summer passes and one remembers one's exuberance.
Autumn passes and one remembers one's reverence.
Winter passes and one remembers one's perseverance.”
