October and Falling Leaves |
Leaves are Falling
Leaves are falling
Falling to the ground.
Leaves are falling
Falling to the ground.
See them gently twirl around
Dancing till they reach the ground.
Leaves are falling
Falling to the ground.

Leaves Fall Down
One by one the leaves fall down.
From the sky come falling one by one.
And leaf by leaf the summer is done.
One by one by one by one.
Margaret Wise Brown |
Like a Leaf or a Feather
Like a leaf or a feather
In the windy, windy weather,
We will twirl around
And all sink down—together.

Who Has Seen The Wind?
Who has seen the wind?
Neither I nor you.
But when the leaves hang trembling,
The wind is passing though.
Who has seen the wind?
Neither you nor I.
But when the trees bow down their heads,
The wind is passing by.
Christina Rossetti

Fall Is Here
Fall is here.
Fall is here.
How do you think I know?
Leaves are falling.
I know it must be so.

Leaves
Leaves on the pumpkin.
Leaves on the tree.
Leaves on the house top.
And leaves on me!

Whisky Frisky
Whisky frisky,
Hipperty hop,
Up he goes
To the tree top!

Squirrelly, Squirrelly
Squirrelly, squirrelly,
Shake your bushy tail.
Squirrelly, squirrelly,
Shake your bushy tail.
Crinkle up your little nose!
Put a nut between your toes!
Squirrelly, squirrelly,
Shake your bushy tail.

October
October, oh October
How did you come so soon?
The days are getting shorter now—
As longer stays the moon.
