Grammy Writes

The Last Leaf

dsc01279

When all his leaf friends

had fallen to the ground

the last leaf of Autumn 

could hardly wait

to twirl and float through the air!

“Before I let go

 I’d like to know…

Was it fun when you flew?

Was it fun?”

When he heard no response

the leaf became frightened.

His friends were always

boisterous on the trees.

He hung his little head

and to no one he said,

“Before I let go

 I’d like to know…

Will it hurt when I fall?

Will it hurt?”
