As I sit down and watch

The trees slowly notice me one by one

They start showing off their newly colored leaves

These leaves are falling everywhere like they are throwing fastballs at the ground.

As the wind pushes the trees back and forth

They start waving hello to me

The sounds of all the leaves make a great wave of noise.

This calming noise fills up the air

And it is so calm that you could fall asleep to it. 

Far in the distance I can hear the cars on woodward driving along

Lawn mowers purring as people get their lawn ready for winter.

I see squirrels having marathons up and down trees,

As I get up to leave

The trees wave a final goodbye.
