It wafts gracefully in the wind
Bringing life to human kind
It gleams gloriously in the sun
Until its life is done
It's texture, opulescent, all aglow
Blood-red veins to show
Its splendour as a decoy
The razor rays its joy
Swaying gently as it falls
Obeying destiny as it calls
Then...lands quietly in relief....
............................a leaf
Thus, mortality will run it's course
And there is no reason for remorse
When the soul begins its run
To follow the sun.... follow the sun
To delight angels, thereafter...
Hear their joy, hear their laughter?
You've stretched beyond this tiny portal
Goodbye, oh gentle living mortal
