Leaves

sorenbarrett

Leaves, leaves green yellow and brown
some on trees some on the ground
Pages of different ages, a different time another clime
In piles some decay are burned or blow away
Leaf's parts containing life, some of peace some of strife
Talking leaves on a critic's  breeze
some dead, some alive
ghost words, once read,  perish but some survive
