Let me fall…

Cometh the hour, of my gentle fall
Fall is inevitable, certain for all
All kissed off by the spiteful wind
Winds are mighty, blow off the bind
Bound to my roots, for aeon, more
More of it and an arduous adieu forth
Forth I’m to depart, into the warmth
The warm lap of the tender earth
Earth replenishes, sways new birth
Birth of a callow green one, of my kind
Kind, I detach, let me fall, let me fall
Fall, as I’m taint, withered, of my flock all
Of all, I’m meetest for fall, let me fall
Until my tree is towering all, adieu all…

Thank you!
