Leaves, Leaves, Everywhere

Leaves, leaves, everywhere.
Once cloaked in green,
now they are bare.

Their cloaks have been stolen
by Autumn Air;
the air has scattered them everywhere.

They have been trampled,
they have been crushed.
Once, they were cloaks;
now, they are mush.

Underfoot, overfoot,
leaves in the air.
Like snow in the winter,
leaves everywhere.

Leaves, leaves, everywhere.
Once cloaked in green,
now they are bare.
