One little tune
Roll, pause, look.
Roll a little, pause a little,
Watch a golden leaf.
One good thing, then home again,
A day can be brief.
Original 12-second instrumental. Optional sound, no looping.

A small beginning. The little navy boot had four coral wheels and nowhere it had to hurry.
A choice at the green. At the village green, two paths waited. The boot could roll a little farther, or stay beside the maple tree.
Something worth noticing. One golden leaf floated down. The boot stopped to watch. That was a perfectly good thing to do.
Time for a pause. The wind rustled the branches. The boot rested in the quiet. The path would still be there.
A little more—or finished. After a while, the boot rolled one small circle. Another circle was a choice. So was going home.
A good little day. The golden leaf came along for the ride. One little outing. One good thing. Enough.
