There is no denying that autumn is here
Despite the birdsong gracing my ear
Despite the soft touch of the rippling breeze and the warmth of the sun as it peeps through the trees
The cows are still grazing and the sky remains blue
But autumn is here, I can feel it, can't you?
It's here in the leaves that are changing their hues
In the harvested fields - and there are other clues:
The lambs are now wearing their wintery coats, there are acorns and berries and conkers to tote
The streams flowing faster, the squirrels are hoarding
Yes autumn is here and the landscape transforming
