Exit Autumn

The leaves were gone when the wind returned past sunset, and there was nothing left to do but help the empty branches claw at the sky.

Been re-reading short stories in October Dreams, and this one is in there. And it's a good one.

All have to read that one. Love the 'bare branches scratching the sky' imagery. That one will stay with me.

Another one of my favorite authors. I have several of his books in my library.
