Among the Leaves
This is just a short poem I did while stuck on a bus for a few hours. I liked it so I decided to post it.
Among the dead leaves I roamed
In the depths of the forest
And there I saw her before me
As if summer's beauty had taken form in her
With hair as crimson as the falling leaves
That fell between her fingers
Her once radiant youth that shone like the sun
Has now faded to twilight
Her eyes were closed as she swayed back and forth
Her pale feet danced on the cold autumn breeze
She was an angel of summer
As summer's life had come to an end
The branch that held the rope snapped
And she landed among those dead leaves
