Analysis of Freezing Fall



Frost lies over the land
Fall shows all its color
Fog rises from the woods
Freezing wind is blowing
Firs are softly bending
Fuzzy clouds are racing
Fragile grasses are breaking
Flowers are quickly dying
Ferns are slowly rotting
Fungus are constantly growing
Frightened goose are chasing
Far, far, far away they go
Foreign countries to see
Flying away from the cold,
Free they rise in the air
From here they go
For they will come back in spring.
