Here is my text:
Gently, gently, leaves do fall. In the Autumn, one and all.
Sailing slowly through the air, from the trees, that now are bare.
Gently, gently, leaves do fall. In the Autumn, one and all.
------
Word count: 28 plus the three words of the prompt, used two times.

Excellent job Anna !
I love to see all the leaves 'sailing down' in Autumn and fall !
