When Mary goes walking

When Mary goes walking
The autumn winds blow
The poplars they curtsey
The larches bend low;
The oaks and the beeches
Their gold they fling down
To make her a carpet
To make her a crown.

by Patrick Reginald Chalmers (1872-1942) , "When Mary goes walking", from Green Days and Blue Days, published 1912
