Cool mornings, pleasant evening chills, all enjoyed by a warm bonfire. Maple trees are the stars of autumn’s beginning, a short vision, and then we watch children dance in leaf piles.

I like how “Maple trees are the stars of autumn’s beginning” made me think of how their leaves are shaped like stars.
