On a crisp autumn day, Mia and Alex headed to the woods.
They loved the crackling sound leaves made under their feet.
Mia saw red and yellow leaves swirling down from the trees.
Alex found a bush of bright, ripe berries.
With baskets in hand, they picked the juiciest ones.
Next, they spotted mushrooms peeking out from under the leaves.
Mia reminded Alex not to touch, some could be dangerous.
They played a game, counting squirrels collecting acorns.
They gathered a pile of colorful leaves for a school project.
Their laughter joined the song of the winds and birds.
As the sun set, they knew it was time to head home.
With their treasures, they left promising to return soon.
