Autumn Song

Autumn Song.

Can you hear the little God of Autumn
Laughing in the trees,
Mocking in the breeze,
Sobbing in the chill of evening?
Can you see the little artist Autumn
Splashing with his gold,
Dashing with his crimson,
Tinting with a reckless vivid hand,
Till the land
Is warm and yellow;
Till the hearts of men are mellow
And they love the elfin fellow?
Can you hear the little God of Autumn
Sweeping through the land?
Can you see the last of Summer,
And can you understand?

—S.G.M
