Leaves of Red

Oh Leaves of Red
of leaves of red
what would the father have said
to see so many leaves of red
leaves of green
no more the leaves of green
so happy to be seen
in leaves of red
bright leaves of red
winsome, solemn
regal leaves of red
what would the mother have said
with these leaves of red
oh they could be leaves of brown
or leaves of orange
leaves of yellow
but these were all
leaves of red
oh so wonderful leaves
of red
