The Green Leaves are Free
Green Leaves Aren't Forever.
The Leaves Are Free The leaves are free. I know they are Running, jumping Twirling away. It came again. Again this year. I saw it. I saw it. The leaves are free.
First the buds. They brought them on. Stuck tight To every twig. Green Green as green can be. Leaves Tied To trees. Growing, green Green as green can be Leaves Tied, tied to trees Surprise, surprise ( what words here?) How can it be? Green leaves gone Now gold, red and brown and free.
They know they're free Free indeed Their waltz directed Freely by the wind. This way, That way Or still they lie Quietly, Patiently Waiting to get their breath. Then rising, racing, Twirling and jumping Lively Playing with the wind. Green they once were Tied to the trees Only ruffling, rustling Quaking quietly in the breeze But now leaves set free.
