Stroll through Autumn Reveries
On a mosaic littered trail
Strewn with colored leaves
Of gold, ochre, russet, and kale
~
Oh, the sights and sounds of Fall
Woodpeckers pecking trees,
Squirrels chirping their call
Birds fluttering in the breeze
~
Perusing the pumpkin patch
Losing ourselves in a corn maze
Buying practically the whole batch
Getting ready for the holidays
~
Witches, ghosts, and ghouls
Racing from door to door,
Cramming their sacks full
Of chocolates and candies galore!
~
Family and friends will be gathered
‘Round the table like a hoard
Butter on bread, to be slathered
Not before giving thanks to our Lord
~
Goodbye Fall nights;
Time to chop down a tree,
String Christmas lights,
And sing fa-la-la off key
~
Oh the wondrous delights
For us to behold
Tis the beautiful sights
To chase away the cold!
