Autumn Frolicking
The children are jumping in the leaves
Last Autumn frolics before the cold
They’ve rolled up their long sleeves,
Overheated, they are sweaty, I’m told
Covered with leaves, brown and gold.
The coming rain will create a soggy pile
No longer suitable for fun and game
Children will prefer to dance with style,
Indoors, until they are tired and lame,
Preferring to watch the fireplace aflame.
