I AM BROWN, by                    
Last Line: Thanks god, for me and autumn leaves.
Subject(s): Leaves


I am Brown -- as brown as Autumn trees
Shimmering gently thru the breeze.
I am Brown -- because God made me so.
He must have loved me tho'
For it took time to make the dye
Then wait for me to dry.
I am not one who idly grieves,
Thanks God, for me and Autumn leaves.
