The Falling of Leaves

Oh! yellow leaves
Please wait a moment for me.
 
Why you are in such a hurry,
to leave from your nice branches.
 
I just want to hold on
The wonderful images
of the living,
that is existing on the branches.
 
Oh! No!
The truth of life, as always.
farewell Fall, welcome Winter
good bye Spring, welcome Summer.
 
Oh! bright sunshine,
Then a cold wind in the sky,
The rain has stopped,
And  now, lovely snowflakes just fall on the town.
 
Please do not stop the falling of leaves.
Today, in the morning, leaves come over the time forever.
Cover all the love and the thought.
 
This morning, although leaves just left their lovely branches
But still, there is a sign of living inside the sign of droping.
 
Oh! leaves will dry…
Oh! leaves will die…
There is a sign of the extinguishment in the arisen.
 
Just look at the beauty of leaves.
Oh, Russet! I love the beautiful images of  leaves.
Oh, Russet! I have found
the sound of leave is falling from my tranquil mind…
 
Life comes after as everyone knows,
as yellow leaves fall down just touching my feet.
