The autumn months have come,
And the wind is a little high;
Tne leaves are turning some,
Having bid summer good-bye.
Soon blighting frost will kill,
The trees will all be bare;
But with all this I sfciil
Hold this the best part of the year,
Early summer fruit is sweet.
And the flowers are very rare,
But fruits and flowers can't be beat,
That bloom and ripen in the autumn
air.
.So childhood is a lovely time,
And youth a pleasure further down;
Full grown manhood’s a laurel fine,
But oh! old age is a glory crown.
