Mother Nature introduces Fall

                                                     The Leaves Are Green

The leaves are green, the nuts are brown, They hang so high they won't come down. Leave them alone till frosty weather, Then they will all come down together.
Old Rhyme

Autumn Leaves

Down--down--down
Red   --yellow-brown
Autumn leaves tumble down,
Autumn leaves crumble down,
Autumn leaves bumble down,
Flaking and shaking, Tumbledown leaves.
Skittery--Flittery
Rustle by--Hustle by
Crackle and crunch
In a snappety bunch.
Run and catch
Run and catch
Butterfly leaves
Sailboat leaves
Windstorm leaves.
Can you catch them?
Swoop,
Scoop,
Pile them up
In a stompy pile and
           Jump
                   Jump
                                 JUMP!
