Tree

By Jessica Khanchandani

I will look at my reflection 

And ponder for the tree behind me 

Who sheds leaf

 For a new spring 

Clearly as time grows old 

The things start to unfold

 They fly away like a butterfly 

So the new spring falls

 And I twirl in the midst of dawn

 I sit there 

Pondering about a tree

 Which gives me a simple reason

 To live
