leaves

I am a leaf
basking in the sunlight
growing and living happily

I am a leaf
fall is slowly approaching
i begin to wither
the other leaves wither and leave me

I am a leaf
leaving my tree
slowly drifting in the wind

I am a leaf
I have lost my color
I land on the ground

I am a leaf
waiting for a gust of wind
to pick me up and carry me away.
I fly into the sky
i soar through the wide open skys and soar
i drift and flow with the wind
the wind carries me
and then I land
waiting for a new wind to carry me
i am a leaf

leaves are my favorite thing to look at. they are so simple yet they are so complex. i am captivated by leaves. i felt inspired to write this poem about leaves. i am terrible at writing poetry but this is an attempt.hahaha

leaves...we are all leaves. drifting in the wind.....slowly drifting. sometimes we soar! sometimes we fall....waiting for a new wind to pick us up! except you. you are not a leaf.

you are the wind that lifts me up. you are the wind that carries me. that guides me. sometimes you go away...but you pick me up and carry me to push me further. i trust you that you will take me to where i need to go.

i trust you that you will help me. I trust you that you will be with me forever. i love you because you loved me first. i love you even when you are gone

i can not describe you. you are like the wind and air. you carry me and lift me up. but so immense and incredible that no one can describe it or see it.

i am a leaf....i was lucky. i was a leaf out of many...and out of all the leaves you couldve picked....you picked me up and flew me high into the sky! and i wont ever forget that.

the thing is you can still be a leaf...just like the other leaves.....you leave me and leave me left heartbroken. but when you did i waited for you to pick me up again. and you picked me up today. but you dint have to...just like the wind and air.....no one can see you....but you are always there....waiting for me to reach out my hand so you can take me to the skies once again.

take me away. fly with me....maybe next time....i can be the wind. and you can be the leaf.
