Fall, Leaves, Fall - Cross Stitch Pattern

Fall, leaves, fall

by Emily Bronte

Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;

Lengthen night and shorten day;

Every leaf speaks bliss to me

Fluttering from the autumn tree.

I shall smile when wreaths of snow

Blossom where the rose should grow;

I shall sing when night’s decay

Ushers in a drearier day.

I'm always a slut for autumn - cooler cloudy weather, Halloween, my birthday. This is my first year in a place that actually has autumn, and I can't get over how beautiful the trees are! I feel like I'm living in one of those made for TV movies about a fancy attorney who visits her hometown and falls in love with a pumpkin farmer to discover the true meaning of autumn.
