A Fallen Leaf

 A trusting little leaf of green,
A bold audacious frost;
A rendezvous, a kiss or two,
And youth for ever lost.

Ah, me!
The bitter, bitter cost.


A flaunting patch of vivid red,
That quivers in the sun;
A windy gust, a grave of dust,
The little race is run.

Ah, me!
Were that the only one.
