Fall Fell
Fall was a bigleaf maple leaf on a main branch green stemmed born in spring spent all summer on her task sending her work back to the trunk until she grew old
In retirement her shoulders golden spreading all over Until with her family she lit the tree alive before the air turned cold before the wind came
Until one day She knew she was done and longed for the ground let go
Gliding down stem-first pirouetting in the air Riding the wind with a shawl upon her back
