Quote by Hal Borland
Catch a vista of maples in that long light and you see Autumn glow

The promise of gold and crimson is there among the branches, though as yet it is achieved on only a stray branch, an impatient limb or an occasional small tree which has not yet learned to time its changes. – Hal Borland
