The Leaves of Fall
red, gold, yellow, green
and a warm brown
the colors of the fall leaves
laying upon the ground
one Saturday morning,
I worked very hard
raking up all those leaves
in my backyard
and once I finally got a big pile
looking nice and neat
a devilish grin came over my face
before I decided to leap
and with the jubilation
of an innocent little child
I ran full speed and jumped onto
that big leafy pile
laughing and thrashing about
I had me a ball
rolling around in my backyard
in the colorful leaves of fall
