Goodbye

Leafs fall
Fall leaves
Snow cascades
Fairy tail dreams of virgin white
Winter leaves me
To spring raindrops
They wash me away
The summer heat torments and burns
Fall arrives by the wind
The wind takes me away
I leave

Hi Arthur! That's how life's cycle turns...we pass through all the seasons of our life, till finally we are taken away, like leaves carried off by the wind. // paul

Wow baby, I have been missing you... let me be the ground where your leaves rest, let me be the air that you breath best, Let me take you away where there is no goodbyes, let there be light in your winter chilled eyes. Really do miss ya Sugar.

There's a really nice flow and cadence to this one. As the seasons come and go you're the last one to leave... most intriguing!
