A strong tree
nobody gives notice
When the leaves are full and green
but oh, when the air breathes change
and the slow death of the past months
looks so beautiful as it just falls apart
Red, orange, and yellow like fire
that doesnt burn,
getting ready for a depression,
a season of just sleeping.
Oh, how beautiful slipping into
a dark and dormant state can be.
Burning bright before taking cover under a blanket of snow.
