As the leaves change
So do I
When I step outside
and the brisk wind
runs though my bones
I know that it's time
for change.
All the green leaves
becoming more vibrant as
they make their decent
to the ground
Their colors dazzle
and twinkle
as I become dumbfounded
by their beauty
and find it bittersweet
that they only become more beautiful
at the end of their life.
Only when they are waving goodbye
do I take the time to notice.
