Poem: The Season of Descent
This is an original poem about autumn that's rather depressing, even though I like autumn and don't find it depressing at all.
The Season of Descent
Each leaf falls just once.
Leaves rust and grow jaundiced.
Breezes agitate them;
rain beats down, down,
pulling on their bond
to the tree.
Their hold weakens, until
it's overcome.
They break away to fly
free
and fall.
Each leaf falls just once,
but just once,
it also flies.
