Dancing Leaves

O strong doth blow
November's wind
From trees
Their leaves
At summers end
-Free leaves
That then a’dancing go
Along the lane
Like autumn snow
-A’dancing
Bouncing
Off the ground
Such haste
These leaves
All crispy brown
-Announce their passing
By their sound
A'dancing
Flying
All around
-
If autumn has a sound at all
-Then dancing leaves
I shall recall
