You told us <br />That you had decided <br />To stay at home <br />For the weekend <br />And you didn't want to go to the cottage of our friends with us <br />To be honest with you <br />That is a waste of weekend <br />And <br />You will never get the opportunity to see the fall colors <br />Again <br />Because the leaves of the trees are changing colors <br />Right now <br />To red and gold<br /><br />Aldo Kraas<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-you-need-a-reminder-of-what-you-missed/
