Each Leaf

After a summer life,
each leaf has a story to tell.
They turn for eternity,
falling to an embracing earth.
Another autumn,
another cycle of nature,
as children play in the colors
of the season.

I love to collect a leaf every now and again. Sounds funny, but I’m drawn to particular ones. The first was at a mountain where a civil war battle took place. Amidst so many late August browned leaves was one crimson. Curious!
