About this Quote

This quote by William Allingham paints a dazzling photo of the autumn season. The expression "Autumn's fire" is most likely referring to the altering of the fallen leaves from eco-friendly to dynamic shades of red, orange, as well as yellow. The fire is gradually shedding along the timbers, as the leaves are altering color as well as being up to the ground. The expression "everyday" suggests that the process of the fallen leaves transforming and also dropping is a steady one, and that the fire is gradually melting along the woods. The phrase "dead fallen leaves drop as well as thaw" is most likely referring to the fallen leaves being up to the ground as well as eventually decomposing and also entering into the dirt. This quote is a gorgeous suggestion of the elegance of the fall period and the cycle of life.
