The Leaf

everything changes

By Brenton FPublished about a year ago Updated about a year ago 1 min read

i looked upon

a leaf today

and marvelled

at the sight and knowledge

of all the days it had ever seen

and each and every night

it's barely seen the sun come up

more than thirty days

it's sorely missed every single dusk

that our eyes happened to gaze?

it passes on not knowing

it cannot see not even with our eyes

it has completed its part

gave all even it's heart

when everything ends

it begins to start.

As leaves

into the fire we fall

in and on fire one and all

this the season they call fall

this is when we

when we

all burn

raked into a pile

ready to burn

the flames

will take their turn

it will all burn

till

the flames

go

out

    A real autumnal poem! ‘When everything ends/it begins to start.’
