Fall is here.
Irene B. Crofoot
Leaves are falling, soft as snowflakes,
Leaves are covering the gardens
anonymous
The leaves had a wonderful frolic.
The moon saw the little leaves dancing.
The North Wind is calling, is calling,
Charlotte L. Riser
When the trees their summer splendor
Brierly Ashour
When the goldenrod is yellow,
When squirrels are harvesting

Down
Skittery
Run and catch
Swoop,
Fannie Montgomery
They're coming down in showers,
Carmen Lagos Signes
Pumpkins in the cornfields,
Old Rhyme
The leaves are green, the nuts are brown,
All join hands and circle round
See them twirling to the ground,
See them skipping here and there,
Autumn leaves so peacefully
Marilyn Helmer
Wind blows
Fall is Here
Another year
is coming to an end.
Summer's finished,
Summer's gone,
Winter's round the bend.
Fall is piles of crunchy leaves,
orange, gold, and red.
Fall is sweaters with long sleeves
and blankets on the bed.
Fall is footbell,
Fall is pumpkins,
Fall's where summer ends.
And
Fall is coming back to school,
and seeing all my friends.
Leaf Blankets
Red and yellow, gold and brown;
The breeze laughs gaily in the treetops,
Shaking all the color down.
As my blanket covers me.
When cold winter comes, the flowers
Will be warm as warm can be.
The Leaves
They danced to the wind's loud song.
They whirled, and they floated, and scampered.
They circled and flew along.
Each looked like a small brown bird.
The man in the moon smiled and listened,
And this is the song he heard.
And we must whirl round and round,
And then, when our dancing is ended,
We'll make a warm quilt for the ground.
Autumn
Change to raiment red and gold,
When the summer moon turns mellow,
And the nights are getting cold;
When the squirrels hide their acorns,
And the woodchucks disappear;
Then we know that it is autumn,
Loveliest season of the year.
September
And leaves are turning brown -
Reluctantly the summer goes
In a cloud of thistledown.
And birds in flight appear -
By these autumn signs we know
September days are here.
Autumn Leaves
down
down
Red
yellow
brown
Autumn leaves tumble down,
Autumn leaves crumble down,
Autumn leaves bumble down,
Flaking and shaking,
Tumbledown leaves.
Flittery
Rustle by
Hustle by
Crackle and crunch
In a snappety bunch.
Run and catch
Butterfly leaves
Sailboat leaves
Windstorm leaves.
Can you catch them?
Scoop,
Pile them up
In a stompy pile and
Jump
Jump
JUMP!
In Autumn
The leaves all gold and red;
They're covering the little flowers,
And tucking them in bed.
They've spread a fairy carpet
All up and down the street;
And when we skip along to school,
They rustle 'neath our feet.
An Autumn Day
Gold among the brown,
Leaves of rust and scarlet
Trembling slowly down;
Birds taht travel southward,
Lovely time to play;
Nothing is as pleasant
As an autumn day!
The Leaves Are Green
They hang so high they won't come down.
Leave them alone till frosty weather,
Then they will all come down together.
Leaves
While we watch the leaves fall down
See them dancing all around.
See them flipping in the air.
Falling, falling from the tree.
Autumn Leaves
and fills the skies
with gold and yellow
butterflies
which flit to earth
with skips and hops
to dance and twirl
like spinning tops.
The last one dips
in a puddle to float
like a single scarlet
sailing boat.
An Autumn Day
Carmen Lagos Signes
Pumpkins in the cornfields,
Gold among the brown,
Leaves of rust and scarlet
Trembling slowly down;
Birds that travel southward,
Lovely time to play;
Nothing is as pleasant
As an autumn day!
