A Single Leaf Out of a Tree

A single leaf, Falls out of a tree above me. As it twist and turn, The wind blows it in my direction. But why? It symbolizes all my struggle and all my pain. It tells me that they twist and turn, But never remain. It takes a sudden fall next to me. But why? It symbolizes the thought of being alone. It tells me that someone is always by my side. As I write, The leaf flies away. As if it had a huge success in it's encouragement. Nature communicates with us in many ways. Not with words, But with a single leaf out of a tree.

Philosophy in just a few words, I especially like the ending. It's the culmination of the poem!
