Kit Webbe Poet Light Verse

Autumn

Autumn

The leaves of Autumn
The bloody leaves of Autumn
When the wind’s got up and caught’em
And blown’em everywhere

With Autumn winds a-squalling
Those bloody leaves keep falling
Those leaves I’ll soon be hauling
Until the trees are bare

The leaves of Autumn
I know not why God wrought’em
Nor why the wind  has brought’em
And blown’em everywhere

Now I guess I can’t return’em
So I rake’em up and burn’em
And you’d think that that’d learn’em
Not to come again next year.
