Maple; Queen of Fall Autumn is Maple's favorite time of the year. Why? For many reasons. After settling into her den from a long and hard day at work, her little fox paws drenched in sweat from the heat, she curls up and rests her sleepy head. In the morning, she wakes up with a start. She can feel a fresh new beginning, like a sprout poking out of the moist ground for a peek at the new world. Trotting merrily out of her den, she dances around in joy. The scent of fresh apple cider and pie wafts over and teases her nose. Her mouth is watering, she can practically taste it! The beautiful big leaves of golden and red go CRUNCH under her paws as she steps through the barrier of torturing hot summer to the cozy relaxing autumn. The misty fog tickles her fur and covers her like a blanket of dreams. She can hear the forest alive with chittering and chattering, leaves letting go and falling, her own paws trudging through the thick foliole. The gleaming sun makes way for the little fox as she strides along. Makes way for the Queen of Fall. "Fall is proof that change is beautiful." - Unknown Author Ty!
