Autumn By the Park

The autumn is singing its song, and the birds of love forage in the orange-red carpet, 'neath the blushing maples; the wind is rusty with their warbles, and quick song, The children swim in the ocean-leaves and football is roaring in the park; they cheer for their Gee-Gees and the barbeque wisps, and final swims; a final balmy hug 'til the rains, and cold and snow, and a final kiss, (though it shall come) not this sweet autumn day. ***For Julie Rodeheaver's contest 'Autumn Romance'***
