The image depicts a painting titled A Rain of Autumn Leaves by the artist Danielle Waechter,. The work is a semi-abstract painting showing autumn's leaves falling and being blown by the wind. The work is set against a wintry sky in subdued hues of blues, whites and greys and snow is already beginning to fall . The image supports the poem Fall, Leaves, Fall written by the poet Emily Brontë.

Fall, Leaves, Fall by Emily Brontë

Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;
Lengthen night and shorten day;
Every leaf speaks bliss to me
Fluttering from the autumn tree.
I shall smile when wreaths of snow
Blossom where the rose should grow;
I shall sing when night's decay
Ushers in a drearier day.
