The most memorable songs that I learned in grade school were about Autumn. I’ve taught my favorite ones to my granddaughters and just this last weekend, a cool breeze accompanied by the sound of migrating geese made us break into song.
“Autumn leaves falling and Autumn birds calling. Nippy cool weather for flying South together.
Leaves of warm orange and leaves of golden yellow, cover the hillsides with colors soft and mellow.”
I cannot find this 1960s children’s song anywhere on the internet. How delightful that I was able to pass it along!
Beyond September
Nature will hearten seedlings
Topped by tattered leaves

As an afterthought, I looked for an old video of my oldest granddaughter singing our song. I found it!
She was four in the video… just this month she just turned 17. Follow my Facebook link to hear it.

I’ve not come across that cute autumn song before, Susan. Thank you for sharing it! I think a ‘cool breeze accompanied by the sound of migrating geese’ would make me break into song too.
😊❤ Thanks!
Would love to hear it sung! 🙂
I’m going to see what I can do to embed a video. If it works, I’ll let you know. Thanks, Dora. ❤
I envy you having a singing voice. My mother sang and one of my sisters sings, but my children have had to make do with recordings.
😊 Actually my singing isn’t very good. I just sing because it feels good. Same goes for dancing. Thanks!
I can hear myself, and it’s a big turn off 🙂
What a sweet song Susan, I had never heard of it either. Is there a way those of us who are not on Facebook can listen to it too? Best wishes, Xenia
Thank-you Xenia. I’ll see if there’s another way to share it. If I’m able to embed it in my post, I’ll give you an update in this thread. 😊❤
Thank you Susan, that would be lovely 🧡
How sweet to pass down this lovely song of Autumn. Your haiku is a delight to read.
Thank-you very much!
Great to be able to pass down a song so sweet.
I feel wonderful about it. Thanks.
A haibun imbided with autumn memories…very nice..
