Fall arrived tonight

A stranger in Summerʼs town

He stole into the night

As the streets quieted down

A tricky little sprite

With a dying twisted crown

He searched across the moonlight

And ran until he fell down

In front of tallest tree in sight

And he presented her a gown

In the twinkling starlight

You could see the reds and browns

His tears came to light

Before his head could bow

As he wished with all his mite

That he could grow into her ground
