Welsonn Goh Poet Ode

My Miracle:

What am I,
But falling leaves, in
Autumn's rust,
And all that has passed?

I am here,
Reincarnated, 
Born again,
Of shrivelled gardens-

Wellborn lives,
Of numberless worlds,
Noble deaths,
Through eternal time.

Ere seasons,
Before summer; before spring,
White silence, 
I have been.

Why I am,
But to vent their love,
Their goodbyes, 
Hello again, Life!

Every flitter,
Every blossom,
Every dive,
Every motion.

Every scrabble,
Every cry,
Every struggle,
Every fight,

For-

Every breath, 
Every life,
& every fair death.

All that I wasn't;
To become all that I am,
Just to say thanks.
