An Ode to Fall

When summer leaves of green

Turn to brown and lean

There comes a time in which

The air and wind are rich

In old exasperated sighs

Among the lows and highs

Of tree tops turned to brown

However not in spite or frown

But because a homely blanket of chill

Has come from over yonder the hill

It is during this time when off go our blouses

And in we go to our fire-lit houses

Where there lay kittens by the hearth

And scented candles of the Earth

Outside the window leaves of orange and yellow fall

And our hearts open to autumn and its merriness.
