This Month’s Picks: September 2014

Falling

By: Gabriela Yareliz I was walking through the village, and I saw a little brown leaf falling in front of me (I looked up and smiled). This year, I have promised myself that I will go to a park and enjoy the leaves when they are in all of their fall glory. My timing is always wrong. I go beforeContinue reading “Falling”
