THE POET'S DILEMMA

What can you say about Autumn
That hasn’t already been said?
How “the leaves of brown came tumbling down”
And smothered the flowerbed
How “the smoking bonfire in the fall”
Enraged the neighbours one and all
How when “I feel the autumn breeze”
I know it’s going to make me sneeze
What can you say about Autumn?
I wish I could say something nice
But all I can think of in Autumn
Are next winter’s rain, snow and ice
