Sitting in the woods before dawn’s break,
I hear small feet rustling in the leaves.
Morning is nippy causing me to shake,
not a morning to have worn short sleeves.
I wrote my first poem while in disbelief,
God gave it to me in Nineteen Seventy Three.
my eyes became fixed on one falling leaf,
It’s title, “A Leaf” as God had spoken it to me.
A Leaf
BY: Tom Wright
1973
Twisting, Turning,
The tiny leaf,
Made its way to the ground;
For another of God's creations
Life has ended.
A short life it may seem;
Only a season;
Such is it with the life of man.
Man is here,
Only for a little season;
Time is fleeting,
After this
E t e r n i t y!
