Have you ever watched a leat as it travels around
The wind blows it everywhere before it finally touches down
See a leaf's journey is something we never think about
Lately though I have ever since I encountered doubt
I wonder if it fears the fall of the final Certain rest
Or if it finds peace being put through the tests You see it spins and dips and turns surrendering to the breeze
A simple fragile thing just drifting through the trees
Perhaps its Flight is not a loss but a letting go A beautiful surrender to the way the seasons flow
The wind may toss me to and fro and leave me feeling tossed
But like the leaf I'll find my way no matter what the cost
And  that's the truth I need to find to let my worries cease
To find where I'm meant to be and finally be at peace
