Falling Leaves
Autumn Cradles What Remains
The Earth cradles what life and time let go.
ππππππππππππππππππππππ
Crimson leaf driftingβ
Silence floats across the air,
autumn's last leaf falls.
ππππππππππππππππππππππ
Branches sway in trees,
Whispers heard through falling boughs
Redness turns bright white.
ππππππππππππππππππππππ
Amber trails vanish,
Sinking into frosted earth,
Roots cradle souls gone.
ππππππππππππππππππππππ
