THE AUTUMN OF THEIR LIVES
By
Ashleigh Anpilova
The third part of the Seasons Series
It's Autumn. A time for reflection.
An established relationship story.
Written: April 2007. Word count: 100.
Autumn.
A fitting season as they had reached the autumn of their lives.
However, their four-decade relationship had neither faded nor grown old; it remained intense.
In their garden the tree that had grown with their love showed off its vibrant cooper coat.
The man turned his eyes from the tree to watch his lover sleep, no doubt tired from their morning walk.
One day autumn would turn to winter and there would be a parting. But only of the physical kind, and a short one at that.
However, God willing, autumn would not turn to winter for many years.
