she watched a leaf turn colors
it was magnificent for sure
the stories that were uncovered
made no sense to her
the tree was vast and growing
through summer,spring, and fall
but soon as winter's touch fell
there was no leaf at all
she stood there waiting
for something of a sign
but no sun came not a leak
until the clock struck nine
what looked like a leaf
was more than life itself
for that leaf stands as friendship
which is worth more then any wealth
