Welcome to 4th Grade! 

                    Gathering Leaves
                            by Robert Frost

                    Spades take up leaves
                    No better than spoons,
                    And bags full of leaves
                    Are light as balloons.

                    I make a great noise
                    Of rustling all day
                    Like rabbit and deer
                    Running away.

                    But the mountains I raise
                    Elude my embrace,
                    Flowing over my arms
                    And into my face.

                    I may load and unload
                                                                                       Again and again
                                                                                       Till I fill the whole shed,
                                                                                       And what have I then?

                                                                                       Next to nothing for weight,
                                                                                       And since they grew duller
                                                                                       From contact with earth,
                                                                                       Next to nothing for color.

                                                                                       Next to nothing for use.
                                                                                       But a crop is a crop,
                                                                                       And who's to say where
                                                                                       The harvest shall stop?
