Both Ways

  Said one autumn leaf to another, "I couldn't decide what color to be for Halloween—yellow or purple, yellow or purple—then I thought, 'Why not both?' So that's what I did."

  "Good choice," replied his friend, now feeling a little sad, because he was only a bland autumn brown.
 
About

While walking down a country road in late October, I spied a unique looking leaf among the thousands of fallen leaves that blanketed the roadside.

Sometimes (in life) you can have it both ways (i.e., you can have your cake and eat it, too).

Dedicated to, and created for, my wife.
