verse to the wind (i am a leaf)


I fell...
out of the family tree
that granted me
breath

quiet...
on my own
soft, untouched

no acquaintance to urge
that vital breeze of autumn
will come

while
the beauty of my dreams
soared
a colorful silence
the silence
that I
took shelter in

I yearn for the life
which I believe
may believe in me
because
I am the leaf
that no one sees

flying, drifting
riding
your touch
riding...
your touch
into eternity

I am a leaf

Robert Anderson




“For what is it to die, But to stand in the sun and melt into the wind?”
