The Beauty of a Leafs Demise

A kaleidoscope of colour, dynamic impressions in flight, A spectacular display of artistry that dazzles the sight. Green turns to crimson, flaming tangerine, and gold. A leafs transforming demise, is a beauty to behold. As sap runs dry, youthful vitality turns evanescent, The beauty of a leafs demise is resplendent iridescence. Seasons change as midlife cedes to ever advancing age, Power sapped by constant transience, yields place to the sage. A leafs downfall, granted, is a casualty of the season, It's journey into oblivion, is transfixing beyond reason. When a leaf, takes it's leave, exits gracefully from the scene, Transcendent beauty leaves us breathless, an event to be seen. John Derek Hamilton October 30,2015
