Twas the week before "leaf fall" and all through the swamp
Not a creature was stirring, not even a Toad,
When out on the pond there arose such a clatter
Toad stirred in his boggy bed wondering what was
the matter.
Out amongst the cat-tails, lily pads and water
He saw bunches of leaves falling in all sorts of color
Away from his muddy bed he sprang with a sigh
And leaped with all his might way up in the sky
It's autumn, it's fall, he cried loudly with glee
The leaves are like rainfall, all falling on me!
