Fall(en) Leaves

Watching around and passing by the neighborhood, while on the road/way to the nearest post office with our van, today (a cool and chilly, sunless Monday), I've thought of the leaves that fell from the trees and were now on the ground...

Here's what I've scribbled on my Composition Book today: Fall(en) Leaves

They're on the ground now

leaves cold, dry, crumpled, wilted

leaving the trees bare.

Blanketing the ground

leaves scattered everywhere

wayward and fallen.

How sad to see them

cold leaves fallen on the ground

lifeless and trampled.
