Fallen Pieces - Cherry Wood Tree

Cherry, Cherry
Red like umber
How many leaves you have
One can only wonder
Leaf by Leaf
In fall's dismay
They'll part without your choice to make
And fly they shall or dive down south
like gentle honey without a sound
What stories they'd have
If one could only speak
Years of knowledge,
Oh what a treat!

Fallen Pieces
