The Leaf


In the world no matter where you go you will always find something that`s quite a show. Whether it be a piece of candy out of the mall or you just going to make a difference down at city hall. There are many kinds of things people can be proud of, but what i`m really intrested in is a simple leaf. Sure a mere leaf may sound a little funny to be proud of but just imagine what it may be like to be one. You sit the in your tree day by day whether it be Spring, Summer, Fall, or Winter just watching the days go by without a care in the world; just wishing you can get to see the world. Just then a huge wind comes by and the next thing you know you`re blown off your tree and soaring high up in the air. You watch in amazement on how high you`re going, and you`re seeing the world from a different angle for the first time. You fly and fly all through the heavens to what you see from below is a town blossoming with life as we know it. Just when you think that this city is wonderful you`re on your way to an even bigger adventure that has many great sites to see. You see many great things as you twist and turn though the wind while wondering when the next best thing might be. As the days turn things start to get a little to much for you. The winds start to pick up and the sky booms and goes dark. The next thing you know it begins to pour with no one to be around to be by your side. The rain hits you like a drum battering you back and forth as you endure the storm. You notice that you embark a downward spiral from all the rain hitting you. Faster, and faster you went down with no end in site hoping to get out of this with your life. Lighting shows from the dark abiss striking so close as if it were intensionally trying to detroy you. As you spin towards certain doom you think about all the good things you have seen, and wonderful things have been for you, and then it happens. Hours pass by as you lay there wondering what just happened and why the same time you didn`t die. As sun rises you notice something very familiar in the water. With no way to turn to get a clear view you wait for a small wind to turn you. You find out the greattest thing to be proud of was yourself all along.
I just this random poem that popped in my head about what it might be like to be a leaf and it just might have a life lesson in here as well. Enjoy!
