Falling down

After Summer comes the fall
then the leaves are no longer dull.
It is my favorite time of the year
because Halloween is full of fear.

The weather turns cool
then you close your pool.
The leaves all turn bright
It's sad to know they'll soon be out of sight.

Red, orange, yellow,green and brown
then the leaves come fallingo down.
A great big mess is what they make
then it's time to pull out a rake.
