ON THE FOURTH DAY OF AUTUMN MYSELF SAID TO ME…

 

On the fourth day of Autumn myself said to meeeeeee

Feel the nippy chilly

Hear the squirrels a racing

Watch the leafies turning

Breathe the change a comin

Allow it All in and BEeeeee

 

Hope it doesn’t go too fast, Hope it stays awhile

Autumn with her dancing spice

Wears her colours in my favorite style

 

There’s something in the air that’s right

There’s something that flows in my blood

When Autumn finds her days and nights

Her harvest season brings quiet light

 

I think it’s the nippy chilly

the pound of squirrels across the roof

The brilliance of leaves that fall

My breath caught up in smoke

 

Hope it doesn’t go too fast, Hope it stays awhile

Autumn with her dancing spice

Wears her colours in my favorite style
