Autumn leaves flutter down
 like tired souls
at the end of their lives

    The essence of the leaf, and it's journey down, fluttering.

    I feel like a half-sunk ball trying to ponder on this, bobbing in and out, whether there is a deep statement on this observation. Maybe I got it or maybe not. Nice one, however. Thanks...
