Leaves Leave

each leaf in its way 
fly like homeward migrant birds ---
toward nations new 

winds and storms ahead 
flying with each green and red ---
find paths of their own 

they might reach in seas 
or in lands known or unknown ---
consciously conscious

Sadly, the leaves do leave, but it is interesting to think about where they may end up... These poems are wonderful, Chris, and a joy to read!
