In Autumn
Reading edition
I'm sorry, Trees, Your leaves have gone, and left you. But don't cry; Don't shiver so. You're luckier than I! When Summer's gone, and Fall's here stern and cool, I have to go to school. Don't tremble, Trees! You shouldn't mind. I wish that I were you! You don't have fractions, no, nor maps to do, And no one tries to make trees keep a rule— I have to go to school!
