Trees are turning red and gold,
And the morning air is cold.
Now the aster plants are faded,
Plainly old and worn and jaded;
And the early blossoms which
Made the garden corners rich
With the summer days have gone.
Brown October's coming on.
Mother Nature seems to sigh
For her children, passing by.
She whose smile was always CHEEKY
Settles back a trifle weary:
Just as all the mothers do
When the long days work is through.
Peace has come and she may rest.
Pride has flourished at her breast.
Now her children. old and grown,
Out into the world have flown.
