The Leaf
We are all like the leaves falling from the tree in the autumn of our lives. See how I float majestically from above, tasting the breeze of summer gone, a dried up life, gone from the majestic oak tree of life, as I lay on the soft grass looking up from where I came. I see acorns falling on my frail body, breaking up my once magnificent body of perfect green, that flowered in the long ago spring.
My brother the acorn will once again take a breath of fresh air before he takes one last look at the sky, and sleeps through
the winter cold. Then awakens to a spring of hope as he battles for the morning sun. A new blessing of hope that the world will come together.
Geoffrey Anthony Williams.
