I see a blanket–
A blanket of leaves.
They have all fallen
From beautiful trees.
Trees now are baren–
Waiting it seems,
Preparing themselves
For a beautiful spring!
Life is a cycle
Of ebb and flow.
Where are you, friend?
Are you ready to glow?
Sometimes, like trees,
We lose our zest–
Take thoughtful time,
And give it a rest!
As time passes on,
Stronger we grow
Until we emerge–
It’s time to glow!
Grow in your spirit–
Reach out to others.
We are all kin,
So, love one another!
