Autumn's Breeze

Farewell to the flowers,
Rest your little heads,
Lay down children,
Upon your sleepy beds,
Summertime blossoms,
Your sweet aroma fades,
Closing your eyes,
Into the nighttime garden shades,
Farewell said the breeze 
As he covers with his leaves,
Mother earth speaks, 
Quiet! Please! 
You noisy trees!
A blanket of snowflakes,
To keep you all warm,
Keeping out the cold,
From the blizzards of the storm,
Skating along,
Crystals sing out in song,
“Father is coming” 
With kisses he brings
Fetching a guest,
Jack frost if you please,
With his coverage of freeze.
