Walking Through Autumn: Week 3

The White Snakeroot’s Latin name means
     Ageless

presumably because it keeps blooming deep into Autumn
hanging on while the walnut leaves and walnuts fall all around

Snakeroot, yellow walnut leaves
a pinecone and
horse chestnut fruit

mahogany polish

an antique in one season
