Explanation:
Serena Kanig Benish wrote: "My mother taught me 'Come Little Leaves' to a tune unlike those I have heard. I was always delighted with the song, and whenever the leaves start to fall in Autumn, I sing that song. I have taught it to my children. (I am a professional classical singer and I firmly believe that the singing of these little songs when I was a child helped to shape my future!) My mother is now nearly 95 and we like to sing these childhood songs to her to jar her memory. I wanted to sing the whole song as we had never quite been clear of the last verse. Thank you for your website, and then to find Eugene Field and those marvelous poems, all from my childhood, too. My older brother had received as a baby 'The Bumper Book' and how long I have poured over those pages! I especially loved the additional reference to why Eugene Field wrote 'Little Boy Blue.'
Thank you,
The poem is the best example of personification. Leaves,wind, insects, animals and streams are personified in this poem.
The poem describes the autumn season. Summer season is over and now winter is about to come.
Wind is calling all his friends ( leaves) to play and enjoy. With all their friends like crickets, little lambs, a small stream they are enjoying autumn season. It is a transition period from summer to winter. They all are playing together in that pleasant atmosphere.
But soon they become aware of the coming winter and start saying farewell to each other.
Now all are dreaming of winter and the cozy beds they all will lie in.
