Scarlet hues of leaves
Cascade like flags from the sky
A quilt of crimson

She looked at her son. He was a man now really. Moments came when she saw glimpses of the boy he once was but rarely and they were snatched by her when he didn't know that he was being scrutinised by someone trying to make sense of who this person was, what he would become.

Love this! Beautiful imagery. :)
Oh, how I miss the color changes of the leaves from lush summer green to exquisite fall rainbows. Now living in Florida, I don't get to see that part of beautiful nature. Your poem was a perfect reminder.
