A fable of foliage 

             A healing dew rained in the dawn

             Horizon turned bloody reddish

             Leaves opened their eyes to the vast

             wind yawned deeply to the air

   Sparrows left their home in search

   Morning bestowed so cold and chill

   Rainbow showed the zenith of color

   Light strayed amidst the leaves

            "Raise, raise my leaves"

            Said a fabulous swan on the way 

            "This is the time worth living

            you'll be fallen soon"

   "No! the traitor swan!

   We, the angles of earthly heaven 

   Lead an eternal life

   The replica of love, sacrifice,dedication

            Leaves murmured in the little breeze

            "We will win the world"

            Griefs were enemy to them

            And never overwhelmed of it

   Believe to be the salt of earth

   Earned the days so gleeful

   Never knew the surrounding 

   Conquered the wealth and health 

            Contempt dominated over good 

            Self esteem grew to the dirty pride

            Forgot the existence and verdict 

            Found no meaning for philanthropist!

   Spring made the couple exotic

   Autumn envied on their content 

   Summer tried the best to make them off

   Monsoon innovated their heart 

            For the periphery, they weren't two,

            But the great 'one' of affinity 

            Two, black hole, grasped every thing desired

            Destiny could stand numb 

   Demise was of no pertinence 

   For them, it too, would be alike

   But, there is the Omniscient God

   Who knows the feeble moments 

            Winter cause, black hands

            Both got ready to die forever

            "Oh! sorry, you are in trouble 

            I'm going to pick you one by one"

   Wrecked the ship midst the ocean!

   A lady became widow prematurely 

   Stars of the sky vanished in seconds 

   The unseen ghosts begin to cry loud

            Who's the spy? who dislike us
            One of them detached, heart broken
            Bleeding tongue talked "will you come with me?"
            The lonely one felt crazy

   Isolation made her to end
   Confession in futile, punished
   She swayed madly, and redeem
   "My love, I'm your past, comes after you"

            Thus the foliage withered off
             Leaving a page blank in the page
             Love chains us smoothly, and
             The departure hurts as cruelly,
       
        The fallen leaves.............
