10、s photos of you in different seasons and the stories about them. Thank You! Natures first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leafs a flower； But only an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf. So Eden sank to grief， So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay. Speaking of autumn, I always enjoy its cool weather. And its the season for harvest, when farmers harvest all kinds of grains and fruits. But what I love best about autumn is that everything turns golden and its just amazingly beautiful.
