There's a big ole oak in the backyard
Branching out with its hundreds of leaves
Each leave can be a branch of life
Seeing and believing as we watch it grow
Starting from the summer to the winter months
The hue change just like a person changes over a course of time
Throughout the year
It is known to be green for starters
As the sun changes it by day
Life that is, becomes of us as we age
Specs starts to show, even though we grow
Growing into something different each and everyday
We are slowing turning brown and I hope no one frowns
It is the truth...that are hue will be different as time goes around
Brown is what we may hate
When you touch us we will break
As our pieces, flutter to the grassy ground
We are dead and useless
Just as the rest of the leaves are mimicking us
A wind comes a stirring
And we fall to the ground in a hurry
