SOWING THE LEAVES.

by MAX o'ELKY.
They are gathering the corn and cotton,
The birds light-feztheTed have flown,
Aud flowers that biOsmsd in the autumn
Are faded and wasted and strown.
The cattle have turned from the upIauds
To cAne-brakes clustering below,
And herds are browning the lowlands,
Where tougher, green VsTdure doth grow.
Birdless the nests arc, and empty,
That swallows built under the caves
The clouds look suIeu and wintry,
While the winds are sowing the leaves.
The ere sings 4 CHEEKY good morning
As it -Parkles and gloWs Oh the hearth,
And the damp, icy air gives ! warning
That snow sheets are weaving; for earth
Over helds and thick through tho forest,
leaving branches 10 shivcr and freeze,
The winds are whiriing their harvest
In sPOTtiHgly sowing the Ieavrs.
