Leaves of the fall bled into red

The trees beg to leave life to die

The leaves in the wind turn to cry

The wilted grass is now dead

But their roots stay alive instead

The breeze whispers a haunting lie

As the world decides to die

Leaves wither into dust from bright red


The the flowers of spring bloom into life

The leaves sprout into a hopeful green

From death the trees are now free

The wilted grass now are alive

The world is beautiful and clean

Far as the eye can see

This sonnet has so many meaning that it could mean. It could mean fall and spring, or death and life, and so much more.

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
