Bright As the Autumn Leaves
Amble through to the forest's trees
Front and center if you might believe
Fronds of many you shall see
Fluttering to rest by autumnal breeze
Gaily sparrows chirp as pleased
Peck by Peck as appeased
Such a sound so sweet to all
This is a time we know as fall
Gusts of wind, grazing leaves
Blowing through this very street
Everyone near and far
Joined together, stare afar
Rest to summer, yet before colds wake
Pumpkin carving, leaves are raked
So please stop and take a moment to breath
And be as bright as the autumn leaves
