Beauty In Decay
"Dead leaves lay still until the wind takes them
here and there: even the last flower is withered:
yet there is a beauty in decay"
Quote by _Constance La France
Beauty in life
Beauty in decay
Beauty in death!
Gazing through the window,
Dreaming of Springtime bliss,
I find leaves drift, leaves flutter,
quiver, shiver, flicker...
It won’t be long when wind
blows away their intriguing stories.
I see dreams of my youth in those soaring,
swirling, floating, whirling leaves,
A decoupage of kaleidoscopic beauty,
They are not permanent, they are not perfect,
They are incomparable on their own!
One last Rose...
withered, but brave...leading
last dance of the ballet!
