The leaves of winter

The grey leaves of late winter

Flutter in the cool breeze;

Reminiscent of the days gone by,

Reminding one of the months to come,

As the cycle goes on;

Winter, Spring, Summer, Monsoon, Autumn;

Do these leaves bring back happy memories

Of carefree cool  nights and bright sparkling stars?

I think so.

Does the tree know

Of the detachment t that is about to come

Like a loved one leaving you forever?

Winter, Spring, Summer, Monsoon, Autumn,

Grey, Green, Bright green, Pale,

The colours of leaves

Are like the colours of life

Each day is a new day,

Birth of a new hope,

Each leaf that greys in winter

Gives rise to  a green one in spring.
