Winter is coming
The autumn leaves call
As they dance and float
And gracefully fall
Onto the pavements
Where they blow around
Clump in the corners
Not making a sound
Then caught by a gust
They rustle and swirl
Like crisps in a pack
They scrunch and unfurl
Swept by a sweeper
And drenched by the rain
They hustle and dry
To start once again
Their yellows and browns
Oranges and greens
They shout this is Autumn
