Leaves On the Roof
The leaves, how they cover the ground today
They have gorgeous orange and brown colors
Look from my window, on the roof they lay
They lay lovely on the roof that pampers
It surely adds a home for them to sit
They gather in some places in high numbers
I see leaves floating down into the pit
No fire burns yet inside its cold confines
Through the window a cool breeze blows a bit
Trees are shedding, hope to one day refine
From my open window it looks so warm
I can see the brilliance something divine
The leaves on the roof will never find harm
The feel of this time of year is quite calm
