The waters must be colder

Now that our seasons have come to change.

Is the anything more left for us to discover?

I ask as I watch some leaves blow and float away.

While others stay and fade.

Decay.

What happens when they leave this Earth.

Does their energy still remain.

Is it just a change of state?

Do they travel through the cosmos.

Or leave this physical plane?

Catch me drifting with the waves.

I hope in this new season the warmth I’ve found can stay.
