Beautiful Colors

Green, green and green is all that you see during summer. But Autumn has came along and everything changes. At least this was my mind set. I wanted to see the changes fast but that wasn't happening. But this week I really enjoyed being outside and observing. I finally saw the changes I wanted to see. There are so many beautiful colors all over the place. Either still on the trees or on the ground. I'm very excited to say that my apple tree is finally changing color. The leaves aren't all changed but there's many of them that are yellow. My apple tree took the longest to change color and honestly I was getting so impatient and frustrated because I wasn't seeing any changes with my apple tree. I was getting inpatient. I tried to research the reason for this but nothing came up. I'm thinking the reason for this is because my apple tree actually grew many apples and my other two fruit trees didn't grow anything but leaves. Below is a picture of my apple tree's leaves.

My apple tree's leaves weren't the only ones changing. There are many other plant's leaves that are changing as well. A couple weeks ago those leaves were absolutely green and I just couldn't wait to see a change. Behind my apple tree is where they are located and they creep into my yard from my neighbor's yard. They are a orangey, redish color. But they stand out like no other. I'm not sure what kind of tree these leaves belong to because like I already said they come from my neighbors yard(I'm glad I have some of there leaves in my yard). Below is a picture of these leaves.

My mother's roses used to be a pure red color. Now they are changing into maybe a little black and red. Most of the petals are falling off and this process took a very long time. Why does everything take so long? I just get really frustrated because I wish the changes would be fast.

There is more beauty in my backyard. There is a tree that has been planted by my father for about a year now. I'm not sure what kind of tree this is but all I know is that it grows many green leaves that are now various colors of yellow. Most of them are on the ground now but I think this looks so beautiful. I love seeing different colored leaves all over the place. It just gives everything the Autumn feel. But why does it all take so long?

After observing this week I noticed that I need to have patience to see the beautiful colors in Autumn. Autumn isn't my favorite season but it sure is amazing. The leaves falling from the trees, the red, yellow and orange colors everywhere, rose petals falling. All this I find beautiful. But for this to happen it took a while. I guess patience is what I need to have. I advice everyone to stay calm and have patience because everything is worth it in the end.
