Drabble challenge 'autumn' - Ezra experiences something new.


Wondering yet again how he managed to get into these situations, Ezra picked up speed, leaves crunching as he ran. Reaching the end of the path, he took a deep breath and a flying leap.

Amazed at the surprisingly soft landing, he stayed immobile for a second too long. He grunted when a blow to his chest and another to his stomach knocked the air out of him.

"Wasn't that fun, Uncle Ezra?" Two giggling little boys looked down from their position on top of him. "Was that really the first time you ever jumped into a pile of leaves?"
