Fleeting Things

Fleeting things are like leaves in autumn
Spiraling in the uncertain breeze
Then to be gathered and burnt

Wow, what a great write! "...Then to be gathered and burnt", such an ending, says so much all in one line! Those leaves are so fleeting, not much left in their life, so soon to be destroyed! I loved this poem! Awesome Work!!
