Collect a fallen leaf on this October day
Know the blessings it holds in its magical way
Press between folds of paper, a treasure to be
The strength, the grace, of a towering tree
Time does pass and held within a memory true
A leaf, a moment, all in celebration of you
It may call to be on view and framed
Simply a JOY ~ a moment of time so claimed.
Blessings be known,
