"Fall, Leaves, Fall" by Emily Brontë

 

Fall, Leaves, Fall


Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;

Lengthen night and shorten day;

Every leaf speaks bliss to me

Fluttering from the autumn tree.

I shall smile when wreaths of snow

Blossom where the rose should grow;

I shall sing when night’s decay

Ushers in a drearier day.



Enjoy the poem with beautiful music.
