Leaves

Withering, Waiting, Wandering,
Friends join me growing up,
Leaves pondering around me,
Wondering if I will ever see,
Withering, Waiting, Wandering,
Whispering with my fellow friends,
Jumping up and down with delight,
Celebrating while being polite,
Withering, Waiting, Wandering,
Thinking carefully about food,
As I am trying not to cry,
I think it might be a lie,
Withering, Waiting, Wandering,
I won't be living for much longer,
As Spring is coming to an end,
I thought I might say bye, my friend.
