crumbly leaves tell a tale of woe their misspent youth a mere haze of glory here they lay yesterday’s cast offs whose  current  claim to fame is  crunchy carpeting  for wildlife while their mama’s branches long for baby buds still swelling deep within they remain forgotten forlorn forsaken to almost all except  the rustle  of the winter winds.

crumbly leaves tell a tale of woe their misspent youth a mere haze of glory here they lay yesterday’s cast offs whose  current  claim to fame is  crunchy carpeting  for wildlife while their mama’s branches long for baby buds still swelling deep within they remain forgotten forlorn forsaken to almost all except  the rustle  of the winter winds.
Wrote  the first version of this  Dec 2013, then edited  it Feb 19th 2014   to  make more connecting   words  as  it was just too choppy sounding. Hadn't written any poetry for   over a year  at this point .
