Conversation with a Leaf !!

I'm envious of you
Of a birth in beauty
Of a life under a hundred suns

... Of always knowing your place
Of never having to ask
Of never having to find someone
Of never having to find yourself
Of never being betrayed by your own
Of never having to leave
Of never knowing loneliness
Or perhaps, knowing it too well
Of dances with the wind
Of sleepy nights in peaceful slumber
Of death before womb
Of a carcass laid gently to rest
In the palms of a caring wind
Of a final dance deep into the sunset
I'm envious of you
Perhaps we meet in dust someday
Perhaps someday I have the chance to be you...
