I am a leaf...
I'm like a leaf blown in the wind..
Fell only to be tossed up and left to tumble on the ground..
Stepped on..And decaying from the lack of sun..
Seen but not cared for..I faded.. My colors hold no beauty..
Torn and ripped..I no longer have a stem..
In the storms i'm drowned by the pounding drops of rain..
I get washed away in the drain..And when the sky clears..
I'm drenched and begin to crumble from the rays of the sun..
I go from place to place with no definite home..get picked up only to be tossed away..

a leaf once gave life to her tree
once in a parade of autumn colors announcing the coming snows
to be laid bare, to return to dust and atoms and carbon dioxide
to be breathed in by life and tucked away bit by bit in a million new leaves
