THE FALLING LEAF

The grace of a falling leaf
Is grace for a moment just.
For then it is unknown,
And buried unknelled, uncoffined in the dust....
 
The beauty that it possessed,
Since the time it was born
Will then vanish away,
One fine morn!

"Don't forget Oh Green leaf!
You above with pride,
Autumn will bring the same fate to you,
And you'll have to abide.

The grace that you claim,
For your being there,
Tomorrow will not be yours,
And you'll be nowhere........
