The Autumn Leaves – Greenbelt National Park, Greenbelt, Maryland

Oh I would like you so much to remember
The joyful days when we were friends.
At that time, life was more beautiful
And the sun burned more than today.
Fallen leaves are to be collected with a spade.
You see, I have not forgotten...

Fallen leaves are to be collected with a spade,
Memories and regrets as well.
And the north wind takes them
Into the cold night of oblivion.
You see, I have not forgotten
The song you used to sing me.

- Jacques Prévert
Les Feuilles Mortes
