Fall

Fall is a season when leaves change color and fall off of trees. Another name for fall is autumn. During fall, leaves turn red, orange, yellow, and brown. Bird's nests are empty and dry leaves crunch beneath walking feet. Days grow short and cool, and crops are harvested.

Clothes for the Fall

In the autumn, most people wear pants and a sweat shirt or sweater. The weather is usually cool enough for a jacket too.

Fun in the Fall

There are many fun things to do in the fall, such as raking leaves, jumping in piles of leaves, picking apples, taking hikes to look at the changing leaves, playing football, and canoeing.

Autumn Woods

I like the woods
In autumn
When dry leaves hide the ground,
When the trees are bare
And the wind sweeps by
With the lonesome rushing sound.

I can rustle the leaves
In autumn
And I can make a bed
In the thick dry leaves
That have fallen
From the bare trees
Overhead.
