Progression
Like a leaf that buds in spring
Then transforms to a leaf of green
During fall turns color and slowly wilts
Falling to the ground to decay
Like a new book we turn each page
Until a chapter is done
In life we have many chapters
We create a story as it unfolds
Like the leaf at end of the season
It progresses through stages
Bud to leaf to colored leaf to decay
Finally finding its resting place
When all the pages are turned
And the story is finally done
Our chapters have been written
We bid farewell as our book is closed.
