Welcome to this weeks short story. It’s about escaping to a quiet meadow for a picnic, the rustling leaves, the scent of the earth, the unhurried passage of time and seeking solace in nature. It’s also about a single autumn leaf drifting to the ground. Get cozy with me, grab a warm drink and enjoy this little story.
