Forty seven coloured leaves
have fallen from the tree.
Some were green,
some are gold,
each one of them is me.
She knew where she was going,
she knew where she had been
and all that time
when she was young,
she knew she was still green.
Add all the springs
and all the falls,
the winters that have past.
This leaf of gold is 47
and she is ageing fast.
Kaydee.
Falling from the tree of life.
