The Beauty In Decay

Dead leaves dance in the wind and embrace As it takes them to a recent place Their beauty is in decay, yet still alive A reminder that all things must thrive. The last flower of the season stands alone Withered and fading, its beauty is now gone But its vibrant colors remain in my memory A symbol of life's fleeting energy. The trees shed their leaves, one by one As they prepare for a season undone But their naked branches reach up high A testament to the strength that never dies. The world around us may acerbate and evolve But life's cycle continues to revolve From birth to growth to death and decay A constant reminder to live each day. So let the wind carry you wherever it may Embrace the beauty in every decay Even in death, there is still life A reminder to cherish every moment and every strife.
