Me as An Autum leaf

A small reflection through the eyes of an autumn leaf—about waiting, letting go, and finding calm in change. Just like us, the leaf feels it all: fear, excitement, and the quiet thrill of something ne

each season arriving and passing with their own significance 

I am witness of each season ,seating on that topmost branch of maple

watching all my neighbors , friends meeting that soil beside maple trunk 

waiting for my chance to do the same 

thinking how it feels meeting that soil 

which seems cold under the shade of maple leaves , trunk , branch during hot summers 

under which people taking rest , 

waiting for their loved ones during summers noon 

thinking how will it feels meeting that soil which is wet during heavy rains 

In which little bundle of joy playing , laughing 

while getting lost in the pool of thoughts 

a thing came In my mind that 

when the moment will arrive how will I feel?

Will i be happy, will i be excited , will I be sad, or will I be afraid? 

in a blink of eye that moment arrived 

I m feeling like I m beginning a new journey 

I felt sad for leaving that place for a moment 

floating in air feels different 

my heart pounding in my chest , my veinlets feeling little nervous 

lamina feeling the touch of air ,petiole feeling the exact 

same way as humans when they are taking a 360 ride or a cartwheel ride in a fair 

with each passing minutes , seconds I m going near the destination I was wishing for few moments ago

lamina touches the soil my veinlets feeling little calm , 

petiole getting settled down with each touch 

soil feels different it has an aroma 

the wetness in it soothing me 

my heart now making a normal lub, dub sound 

with each passing moments I m feeling like I m going deep in my entire new journey 

it feels thriving but exciting
