The faded leaves

I love the fitful gust that shakes 


The casement all the day


& from the glossy elm tree takes 


The faded leaves away


Twirling them by the window pane 


With thousand others down the lane


I love to see the shaking twig 


Dance till the shut of eve


The sparrow on the cottage rig


Whose chirp would make believe 


That Spring was just now flirting by


In Summers lap with flowers to lie
