Leaf

A single leaf,

Adrift on the wind,

It brings the story of the past forest.

.

In its veins,

Low tones of rain,

And the lukewarmness of the sun,

She is promising to return.

.

With its fall,

Bring to mind,

All of life is a cycle of a journey,

Beautiful is its simplicity,

Profound in its depth.

.

And we,

The observers of its voyage,

Find comfort in its wordless lesson:

To hold and grasp each moment,

For in the transient,

We touch the endless.
