Cycle

The leaf fell from a tree
And the tree ...is still a tree
A single fallen leaf does not make less of a tree
The fallen leaf may have caused the tree to look incomplete
But who cares, other trees don't know that a tree next to it has lost a leaf

The leaf?
It has withered and eaten by the loam
Making the loam healthier
Now the tree stands on a healthier loam
No trace of a fallen leaf
The branch which was once a fallen leaf's place
Now has a new leaf
The new leaf may or may not be a perfect fit
But it sure makes a tree look complete again

The tree?
It has grown into a healthier and stronger tree
The cycle continues....
But the tree is also getting older
There comes a time that all the leaves have fallen
The tree will lose its strength
And soon the tree will fall and eaten by the loam

The loam?
It is now the dwelling place of once a healthy tree
It is the only witness of once a great cycle
The loam may seem empty
But it is now the home of the untold story...
Of a non-typical love story
That of a leaf and the tree...
