The Fall

I have always wondered how all of a sudden all the leaves of some trees fall, leaving its branches like a skeleton. I saw this phenomenon happening within a week after I had glorified the beauty of this nut tree, all its leaves fell in a very short time.


Poem Artwork

   The void of a tree without leaves cannot be measured


Bearing the beauty  and fragrance  of a tree

Like  rich almond studded jewels adorn

 The  pretty dazzling leaves   soon weary

 

Perhaps it is the  glare

Or was it the air

 The  changing season pecking

  Its nubile little form

 

 

 

 For  all at once, it withered

 Like shedding of skin

Saddened to see them lie

 

  A bed of leaves on the ground

Then to dust return

Fall is here

 

  Naked  wild almond branches.

Sunbathing in the air

 Forlorn and lost wailed  

 

Until  return of  leaves swaying

The tree in a ghostly attire

Upright and blank stands

You have turned the natural cycle of a deciduous tree into the realm of poetic fantasy.

This is very good. The mysteries of nature have been, and will continue to be, the topic of poets far and wide. You're poetry just gets better and better.
