The Final Act
Autumn leaves are shades of brown
Season change to winter
Winter fills the air with a chill
Outside no life is present
Just like the earth goes through a change
So does the lives of people
With time we age and wither away
For new life to start its process
Amazing how the ways of life
Is the same for every being
No matter what the form or shape
Each for will change in stages
It’s like a play performed in acts
Awaiting the final curtain
The end provides a closing
To the plot each one is searching
Before the final curtain falls
And my act on earth is over
I hope my life has been summed up
Before the end is over
Once around enough for me
No time to create a sequel
For when the curtain finally drops
Please place the props in storage
