A simple leaf depicts our life's journey very well. This is a poetic attempt to picture the life of...
As it falls to the ground it reflects over a happy life gone by,
It will soon be assimilated back in the soil
And act as new life's nourishing energy supply!
A Leaf

Delicate and refreshingly green,
A shy little leaf hides in its natural fold;
It quickly adapts to the bright gleam,
Thus begins the race to seek the ball of gold!
A shy little leaf hides in its natural fold;
It quickly adapts to the bright gleam,
Thus begins the race to seek the ball of gold!
It can reach great heights
And survive a storm,
With roots that run deep and strong;
And survive a storm,
With roots that run deep and strong;
While colors reflect the many seasons that passed,
Now it slowly withers in its cold plight;
For winter always does come, alas
With a gush of wind that makes it take flight.
Now it slowly withers in its cold plight;
For winter always does come, alas
With a gush of wind that makes it take flight.
It will soon be assimilated back in the soil
And act as new life's nourishing energy supply!
