A Leaf

Once upon
An autumn leaf
Dry and brown
A story told
Through the dance
Left and right
Kissed the ground
Stroked the sand
A tongue to speak
Language of
Sad and fear
I can hear
Loud and clear.

And I am once
Born to preach
Language of
Peace and love
Draw and paint
A thousand words
Feel my lips
Move apart
Hear my heart
Cry for just
But sure you know
The world you're in
Is but a show
That has an end
A happy one.

So hear me say
One more time
A story told
A thousand words
Be sincere
Persevere
And you will be
A charming leaf
Red and green
Full of life
Peace and love
Once upon
A Saturday.

All my comments are..more or less..the same everytime, because your poems are always wonderfully written, & most importantly, they are all SO meaningful, Mashalla!

Keep it up, bro - awaiting your next one!
