Autumnal Feelings

 Autumnal Feelings

"The seasons will change," I explain

As the leaf drifts away from its summer home

It shan't feel pain

It lays on the ground waiting for...

Someone

    Anyone

        Someone

Or it waits for the wind to carry it

As we exclaim, "there she blows!"

But wait, who goes?

A child- a baby- with the cheerful smiles

And the active, wiggling toes

He picks up the leaf and runs steadfast

To place his special leaf for everyone to glance

The leaf feels nothing but important joy

For it was deemed important by an autumn boy

Happy First Day of Autumn!

Dedicated to little brother!
