Poem

Last Days

Leaves fall from the tall oaks,
Scattered by the fate of God.
But the acorn was ever bold,
Now a tree standing bravely alone!
Yet each day of my life was like a leave:
Youthful green, sunny yellow and bright red,
Each hurled to the folly of the wind.
Now, like the leaves I too fade and cry:
“O God why was I not born an acorn,
And not so quick to wither and die?”
