Keeping Secrets

A leaf rides the breeze To the soft grass; It has leapt to its freedom. Where it blows from there; What it finds and sees, It will never tell a Living soul. Leaves can Keep a secret forever; They only speak among Themselves. Unlike people, Leaves never betray any confidence.

Think of all the devouring fires worldwide with the horrifying results they have on trees, fruit, grass, flowers animal and even humans. Sadly many leaves left us a dying secret, save planet Earth. A wonderful poem. Blessings and hugs, Jennifer. Jennifer

I hear the leaves whispering in the trees but they never reveal their secrets - shame more folk arent like the leaves so much dis information gets out and twisted which is even sadder:-( hugs Jan xx
