THE MIST AND ALL by DIXIE WILLSON

First Line: I LIKE THE FALL
Last Line: THE MIST AND ALL.
Subject(s): AUTUMN; MIST; SEASONS; FALL;

I like the fall,
The mist and all.
I like the night owl's
Lonely call --
And wailing sound
Of wind around.

I like the gray
November day,
And bare, dead boughs
That coldly sway
Against my pane.
I like the rain.

I like to sit
And laugh at it --
And tend
My cozy fire a bit.
I like the fall --
The mist and all.
