Swivelling stalk downwards,
spiralling gently earthwards
The yellowed leaf falls
Just like that, down it sails
No noise , no sirens , no pain
No reason to whine or complain
No loud moans , no loathing the end
No petty groans , Into the scene blend
Gracefully , noiselessly , it accepts
At matter of factedness , it is adept
No wailing family , no unruled kingdom
No fake drama , no abandoned fiefdom
Let us be like the leaves
Behind us let's not leave
Too much muck and stink
Let the tree thrive pink
Let our absence
Lend peace
Not remorse
Endless farce
Oh leaf ! Aged and Yellowed
From this life mellowed
Please take me along
To your noiseless world
