Autumn's Leaf

       Autumn's Leaf

Autumn's leaf falling to the ground.

I can almost hear the sound

as it flutters round and round.

When you look around all the trees have frowns

because all their leaves have fallen down.

Then, you look up and there's but one left

still hanging above the ground

And suddenly, the wind picks it up

to carry it off to another town.

Once again, another tree has a frown.

As you stand alone waiting around,

you finally sigh and say,

"There will be more autumn leaves another day."
