"In the other gardens
And all up the vale,
From the autumn bonfires
See the smoke trail!
Pleasant summer over
And all the summer flowers,
The red fire blazes,
the grey smoke towers.
Sing a song of seasons!
Something bright in all,
Flowers in the summer
Fires in the fall! "
- Robert Louis Stevenson, Autumn Fires
This is our dear neighbor's pistachio tree. It's on fire!
It has the most wonderful fall foliage in the world
and it always does this every year!
We can see the red from our place. It's just too lovely.
