Nature’s Goodnight

Sing with Me (1969), p. G-12

Clouds of gray are in the sky, Flocks of birds are passing by, Trees now dress’d in faded brown, Send their leaves all rustl’ing down. Little flow’rets downward creep, Nod their drowsy heads and sleep. All the world must say “Good-night,” Till spring comes back with sunshine bright.
