Watch the leaves tint with a shade of yellow
Greens and reds and somewhere in between
Fall is here to taint orange on green meadows
And orange on green canopies of trees tall and lean
Fall with hair of orange willow wisps
And eyes of caramel and honey
Fall that makes leaves dry and crisp
And a cold wind that makes your nose runny
Fall who wears a cloak of dried pine needles and leaves
The cloak that leaves a blazing carpet on the ground
See in the fields bundles of gold grain sheaves
See the leaves spin around and around
Fall with a red and black checkered scarf
And a silky and delicate red gown
Fall with a cold breeze that makes some cough
For the hot Summer has long gone
Watch the leaves twirl down on to the sidewalk
As everything starts to die little by little
Melancholy vibes as down the sidewalk people walk
As Fall colors sink into everything little by little
This death is tragic and beautiful
Watching roses and other flowers wither
Watching leaves go to their funeral
Watching small birds go hither and dither
The harvest has come and the crops are ripe
Golden now baked under a golden sun
Fruits and vegetables of every type
And kids running through pumpkin patches with fun
A carpet of gold and orange and red
Underneath feet warm in thick fur boots
Now warmer covers are needed for bed
And you get fresh apples and fruit
Fall, the harvest and work of the people and farmers
Fall, the last spark of Summer that refuses to die
Fall, the beginning of Summer's departure
Fall, the end of the beginning of a cold Winter sky
