I'm not sure which captivates me more, the little song or the beautiful illustration by Arthur Rackham. What is it about Fall that makes me want to relive my childhood? I sang this song as a little girl.

Come said the wind to the leaves one day,

Come o're the meadows and we will play.

Put on your dresses of scarlet and gold,

For summer is gone and the days grow cold.

A Children's Song of the 1880's
