Dances with Leaves

I want to rake this autumn yard

but leaves keep falling down

the job itself is not so hard

but leaves keep falling down

this season never seems to end

and leaves keep falling down

the yard keeps getting deeper still

as leaves keep falling down

I wish that Winter would arrive

and no more leaves fall down

but I think that winter went away

and leaves keep falling down

and soon enough the Spring will come

when leaves lay on the ground

and then will turn on Summer's heat

and dry the leaves

still on the ground
