Tomorrow, Realized
/I feel this time coming to an end
Or, rather, a transition
Where art once evoked such passion
As to become obsession
‘Tis now a fleeting remembrance
A solitary leaf
Turned from the blossoming fragrance of Spring
To the lush, vibrant green linen of Summer
And now curled to crackling brown parchment
Waiting only for the next gust of autumnal wind
To part from the tree of its birth
And drift slowly to its demise
But this view is too morbid
And we realize that the fallen leaf
Becomes the soil in which new trees will grow
And fresh foliage present itself
Thus I wait
Not fearfully
But expectantly
For what new passion
And purpose
Shall emerge
From the garden in which my thoughts and words and deeds and works
Have come to rest
As seeds to take root
And grow anew
Realized on the morrow
