Fall's Leaves

                                                                  

 

Though the leaves go and come eternally,

It seems that when they do depart,

It's almost always fall, in their called-away hearts.

 

How similar are we to them, in our leave-takings.

Our souls know when life's over,

Even when our spirits defy dying's vicissitudes.

 

All of us, regardless of existence's gifts,

Go there, get there, wherever "there" is —

The cemetery, the air, or God's shared paradise.
