A LEAF
On a tree lays a branch,
Most evergreen in nature; in truth,
Beauty is truth, in its nature.
What a leaf and a story to tell.
Oh Leaf! Are our lives ever green?
On a leaf body, mind and soul,Which a leaf finds in its branch, its tree,
Temperature and obedient to its soul,
Making needed changes in and out of seasons.
Even those on plain land are useful,
Finding fields for food fighters,Some learn from what they see, green nature,
Living a nation identity,
Seasons over seasons while building a people.
How useful are you as a leaf?
What change in dry, wet land are you?If you as a leaf does add value not for the future,
If no leaf, on a branch as you,
Beauty is no truth in you.
