Notes About The Poem

Leaves of Life Poetry Contest. Sponsored by: Hiya Sharma ~~ I used all the prompts.

Leaves Of Life Are Calling

"As the leaf of life sleeps upon my lips," I will see the "foliage of farewell." "When the soul-stars dream and die," I see red leaves covering the fall trees. "O fall, let this lore of love be the last," for I now see "I am the Eyes of Time." The green leaves must change colors for the fall, but "neither dusk nor dawn can delude me."
