Obsession

Why do I

Obsess over fallen leaves?

Should I lie

And try to pretend

There is no end?

 

Trees do not  grieve

For fallen leaves.

Nor will I,

For all must die.

 

Yet I see

A poignant beauty

In these bare trees

And Autumn leaves.

      Thank you, Ken. I have always suspected that others must feel the same as I do about Autumn, but I have met so few of them. So its good to meet a fellow fallen leaf obsessed poet. Kevin
