A poem

Here is a poem my mom wrote in elementary school, occassionally as I sift through her writings I will publish them here, if for no other reason then to imagine her writing these words, and maybe in some way connecting with her thoughts:

Fall
By Barbara Maggiulli

Fall is cool, with a swaying breeze,
It has bright and beautiful leaves,
The song of the wind is a sleepy sound,
It sings a lullaby.

Fall has leaves that drop in the creek,
They make crackling sounds on the
dusty dirt road,
Now, sooner does the sunset glow.
