The leaves are gold the air is cool
A quiet time before the school
Gets busy with its winter hum
Forever autumn softly come
The sun hangs low in the Lord's light
That fades so fast into the night
The pumpkins smile the apples fall
A sleepy season covers all and
Autumn's leaves are twirling all around
The squirrels are busy storing food
And it's a pretty sight and they are
Preparing for a solitude and the little
The birds fly south a feathered stream
A whispered promise in a dream and the
The garden sleeps a quiet bed and
With blankets brown above its head so
Forever autumn paints the ground
With colors soft and without a sound.
