More Than One Leaf

=================================================================================================
Late Fall brings more than one leaf down from their Summer perch on trees to land on ground and
collect sometimes in vast piles after a particularly windy cold Autumn day.

The scene is one pile of mostly red and yellow maple leaves, the colors of Autumn, resting on
the ground awaiting the cold Winter season snows to sweep in.

This is my contribution for WP single word prompt:”LEAF”.
