A single leaf fell from a single tree                       c. 8.14.14 J.Ray It blew lightly upon a cool fall breeze It lay upon the wet soft cold ground Not caring to be alone and unfound It cares not to move or ever be seen It cares not whether the grass is green It lay camouflaged among the thousands fair The leaf shows only its simple beauty there It is only with the many that its simple beauty blends With all the others among it, that it can call its friends So many times we fall just as that single leaf Through all the sadness, anger, misery and grief So many times we feel so dark and utterly alone Forgetting about the tree of which it has grown We should all be so lucky to float upon the cool fall breeze We should throw cares to the wind and put our minds at ease

The Single Leaf
A single leaf fell from a single tree                       c. 8.14.14 J.Ray It blew lightly upon a cool fall breeze It lay upon the wet soft cold ground Not caring to be alone and unfound It cares not to move or ever be seen It cares not whether the grass is green It lay camouflaged among the thousands fair The leaf shows only its simple beauty there It is only with the many that its simple beauty blends With all the others among it, that it can call its friends So many times we fall just as that single leaf Through all the sadness, anger, misery and grief So many times we feel so dark and utterly alone Forgetting about the tree of which it has grown We should all be so lucky to float upon the cool fall breeze We should throw cares to the wind and put our minds at ease
Hope this makes the cut Joe Cole! Hope you enjoy my friend.
