Signs
the signs of the coming season
is upon us
the lingering leaves still reach
for the light
of this new day
as they prepare
for transformation
my family and comrades
have fallen
they are now fully grounded
and shall go the way
of the fate of our ancestors
they shall nourish
the children
that are yet to come
i am happy
for a remnant of me
shall indwell
within the future
so i reach for more life
more light
before i too fall
and take my right-filled place
upon the pathway of eternity
the signs are here
amongst us
let us take heed
signs
