Decaying Leaf



I have fallen from the tree,
Separated from my fellows,
Green and full of life I was,
Now, I am rotting,
Half-way gone,
Neither green nor brown,
I lay here on this grass,
People often think I am crass,
They crush me,
I am nothing to many,
Oh God, let me transcend,
To the other side,
But I know the process is slow,
Only with time I will lose my glow.
