An Autumn Leaf's Lament
Do you remember that day,
As we walked along our lives,
Sharing all that we could give,
And giving all we could away,
Do you remember their faces,
Friends, families, and lovers;
Those who have touched your life,
They who passed through life's phases,
Do their memories linger,
As we move on in our lives,
Their laughters, and their tears,
All of which seemed then so meager
We once shared our path as we started,
Like leaves falling in autumn chills,
Our lives intertwined with others,
Til the moment we soon departed
Such is life as we live on,
As we continue moving on through our paths,
As we share the momentary crossroads,
And let go of paths long gone
We will continue to love,
And to lose those that we once loved,
Be they momentary friendships,
Or what seemed to be eternal love
Life's cruellest memories,
Are rarely they of pain or suffering;
It is the happiest moments in life once lost,
That grief hums its melancholic melodies
Yet we can only move forward,
Like autumn leaves dancing in the wind,
As we continue to share our paths with others,
And bear our memories onward
Thus will an autumn leaf lament,
As it descends in its momentary life,
Sharing passing moments with many others,
Til it lies flat in its journeys end

Grieve not for those you have lost in your life, but cherish instead their memories as you share your life with others to come. You may not be the person who will stop wars and famine, but your words and actions will leave a mark on friends and lovers long gone, as theirs will touch yours for the rest of your life.
