The warm summer breeze felt joyous as the sun kissed our skin
Now that it’s gone we are left with nothing except for a crisp cool wind
Although the world is more colorful now to help us cope with the cold winter to come
Whirls of the winded nature make music and dance away the leaves
The delightful sounds on the playground are no longer there
It’s replaced with the lonely sounds of grass and dead leaves blowing about
Long walks on the lakeside have become just a memory to smile upon
Oh so cold with no leaves, trees stand bare waiting for the snow to fall
When the leaves fall, I know what’s to come; a long lonely winter is ahead
Because I knew this day would come and that you would have to go
When the leaves fall
