Forward Planning for M'Lady Emma

Forward Planning 2010

 

Bright autumn leaves like butterflies

 are gaily dancing in the breeze.

Until they fall; no more to rise

 and coat the ground beneath the trees.

In carpets of rich autumn hues

Which will soon fade to neutral brown.

The time has come for trees to lose

 their leaves and cast them down.

As they prepare for winters rule.

Returning to the earth again

 their useless leaves to use a fuel.

Which when spring comes will help sustain.

The sudden burst of energy

 that is required by every tree.
