The Leaves Of Trees
It begins with a birth
A tiny little blossom
It works itself up
From the top to the bottom
Slowly, It grows
Absorbs from the sun
Then one turns to six
And six to a ton
With the seasons
They change
Expieriencing all things
That life may arrange
In Spring, They're happy
Dreamlike, in love
Innocent, Tragic
A wistful dove
In Summer, They mature
Becoming lustful, wild
Sheding the innocence
They knew as a child
In Fall, Come the blues
A fight against the wind
Some of them make it
The others...transend
But in the end
Winter holds them captive
And slowly, they wither
No matter how adaptive
The Trunk is steady
The Branches, they be
Oh, what a wonderous thing
The Leaves of Trees
