A Leaf
A leaf falls softly at my feet,
Sated with rain and summer heat;
What time this leaf was green and new,
I still had parents dear and true.
A leaf — how soon it fades away!
Child of the spring, the autumn's prey,
Yet has this leaf outlived, I see,
So much that was most dear to me.
Sated with rain and summer heat;
What time this leaf was green and new,
I still had parents dear and true.
A leaf — how soon it fades away!
Child of the spring, the autumn's prey,
Yet has this leaf outlived, I see,
So much that was most dear to me.
