POEM: “Come, Little Leaves”

George Cooper's poem "Come, Little Leaves" is a delightful and whimsical tribute to the changing seasons and the beauty of nature's cycle. 

Through simple yet evocative language, Cooper invites his readers to embark on a journey through the transition from summer to winter, told from the perspective of the changing leaves.

A classic poem that captures the autumn leaves' journey from the wind's call to the winter sleep, as well as the joy, the farewell and the beauty of nature's cycle in a simple yet suggestive manner.
