One Leaf
-
it seems I've spent a lifetime
watching this one leaf spiral down
changing colors with each new twist
and I wonder what would happen should it hit the ground
would all my dreams tumble into space
or would the beginning start all over again
either way it appears to me, to be one in the same
when you're amongst friends, to rebirth there is no end
-
time has a way of making memories
that the spirit witnesses in silence
alone in a park, all blocked out
except an extra sensory compliance
with the past as it merges with the future
the present ever present, like an unpaid tutor
to a student of life, the wonderment. escaping
from the science
-
it seems I've spent a lifetime
watching this one leaf spiral down
changing colors with each new twist
