Meditating on the season, I
took notice of a leaf's dramatic
fall -- a fascinating journey: a
quarter past first marvelous budding~
soon unfolding into towering
presence...now~ dynamic
parting: flamboyant waving,
a curtsy and leap,
a spin with colorful grin,
supported by daffy current --
playful rocking, showy gliding -
faking downing, direct sliding
then again rising, as a royal nose --
at last arriving at inevitable rest
back when the spring commeth
re-leaf….
The Maple Leaf By SWA (Suzanne)
At night in the day
you visit by transport
of the wind a message sings in the distance
you come from a residence or hand that
placed you here, how you knew nature
speaks to my very soul!
Yet...as I get closer silence
no whisper I hear
What is that message?
What is the reason?
Are you stalking me?
Or is it provocation you crave?
Different fashion you clearly love
sometimes brown, green sometimes a mix
Where, hence you come from Maple Leaf?
I no longer wonder for your silence
no longer hinders me, I see clearly now
that answer only in my heart
not even your beauty depicted
in nature will provoke that answer
only a clue I can provide
God is Real Maple Leaf that
you should know
for before your birth many other Leaves formed
from the branch you call
your residence and only when God decides
shall no more Leave , be.
Held in my hand a fallen leaf…
let go before the season: should
I not question the reason, even those
of God? Or only the foul-play of
man?
Determined I traveled the veins,
like a palm-reader reading her
mark, some earnest applying thought
mystical craft – traveled did I the
many meridians, like bread-crumbs
along a forest path...curiosity eating
away as I passed --
What learned I cannot say
What felt I cannot pray
Over-looking the greatest treasure
in retrospect found
entered the light of another day
I saw a leaf today
in the up-draft --
one last dance
and lift before
the Fall Finale;
crisping and fading,
flaking...but only an
illusion of death, for we
know the chemistry, and
the majesty of seasons --
thinking of our shared
love, the years of affection
ever greater...would be
an unforgivable pity
if heaven
were the only
contrary….

This yellow maple leaf waved at me
Catching my attention from the tree
It is so large, it brings a reminder to see
Thinking big, is everything you want it to be

A bright red maple leaf rests in the road
Fallen with many stories to be told
Its beauty remains on the pavement to see
As in life, we may tumble on our way to be free
No fallen journey lacks lessons to learn
Even while falling, brings us concern
We can grow with the seasons, willingly
Our beauty is seen if we allow it to be

I will always remember you
even if you are ruined and fusty now.
a Fall Strayed leaf from an autumn tree
drifted by the years
and shattered by into bits and pieces.
You left me with a good memories
while I'm still in the spring.
Chirping of birds, they are singing,
But you decided to be gone before
the coming of summer.
I will always remember you,
even if you already fading now
and you maybe forget us
as the years bidding its good bye's.
Because no one can replace you
and no one can never hide
that you have a part of me and
that I have a part of you.
i have a leaf in my pocket (i look at the
leaf everyday) it reminds me about the ever changing life (the veins
carry every breath of victory, my darling; and the continuity of growing from
one branch to the other, the roots – foundation of fueling the innate passion)
i fright
how innovation (for you and me are different, my darling) i desire
no realm (to separate you and i as you purify my world, my sweetheart)
and when i light a candle, burn the sage, your veins surrender
to whatever music is being sung to you
i confess a secret nobody knows
(the root of life, the walls of every home and the thorns of every rose
and the clouds with the sky; which protects
deeper than the soul can wish for or heart can deny)
as this is so meaningful how you purify the hearts of every being
even the stars shine for you during the rainy night
you are life giving me life
i have a leaf in my pocket (it reminds me of every breath and I look at the leaf everyday)
When I am the wind,
and you are a leaf,
I will worship Thee
beyond belief.
Summer dances
across your skin,
when you are a leaf
and I am the wind.
When you are a leaf,
and I am the wind,
each passing day
I will return again.
If you desire
the warmth of the sun,
I will move the clouds
one by one.
You will feel the sun shine
for only Thee.
When I am the wind,
and you are a leaf.
When I am the wind,
and you are a leaf,
I will find you clinging
to a naked tree.
Colors distorted
by the changes of fall.
Still I will cherish you
most of all.
On a breeze I will carry thee
to all the places I've been,
When you are a leaf,
and I am the wind.
To Be As A Leaf
By
Ingrid Showalter Swift
To be as leaf
…food and so fire for the flame
of hearth and human souls
and to be leaf floating on the river of my ever days
Seasons Last Leaf
Purged atop a lofty Popular
A singular leaf all that holds
Like in drowning - gasping for last breath
A life once was – now clinging to the past
The season of spring brought forth its life
Love to blossom to bear fruit and green
The wonders- all newly felt and viewed
The leaf smiled among the young it knew
In summer time the heat did soar
The leaf grew as rains did pour
By trials of wind water thunder and drought
The leaf endured each tribulation and grew proud
At first frost many shivered and fell
But most became brilliant chrisom red- do tell
A gathering of color painted by the creator’s finger
As the leaf among the many waited its time
Now the last- singularly purged atop the lofty popular
The life given it wavers to left than right
Until the leaf rest among the assembled piles afoot
In winter time a blanket comes
Upon the leaf the piles the ground
Nature cocoons to repair once more
The hope that comes after winter’s storms
If a leaf fell,how would it fall according to sound?
Is it that of a brisk?
Not of the leaf but the night chill we feel..!
Was it a swift that the wind made when it blowed it by you?
It was sound of a russle you heard as the wind brisked it through.
That of a cover falls as the mist forms around the moon.
It is that of fall we feel chillin our bones.
The whisper she calls out.
The wind of natures way.
The leaves fall and yet another season has played....
I was walking through the forest
Saw a leaf on the ground
It looked discolored and tattered
Exhausted and dreary
So I turned it over
Was so colorful and bright
So fresh and brilliant too
I began to wonder
Why it landed that way
Or had it changed over time
I then looked at all the other leaves
So many dim and lacking color
I began to turn them all over
Until there was a golden glow
With brilliant reds mingled through
I felt so much better
And became revived
As I discovered this is the way
To start the New Year

one leaf dangled from
a single spider-web strand
in fresh morning air
as I greeted the sun,
sitting under a tree in
my dew-filled backyard
I was stilled by the
beauty of this lone leaf, in
its simplicity
But, then the leaf fell
I was startled, but the joy
in my heart remained
**morning, noon, night senryu contest
.
Change comes turning red
Being released floating..wind
Soar glorious heights
