I’m turning red! I’m turning orange!

I’m turning red! I’m turning orange!
Fire now I have, the brightness of my life
Is now revealed, and in the wind
I will dance! Dance with me!
Shouted the leaf, and the whole tree
Came alive with color!
Soon enough we will fall away, rot away,
Become fertilizer and elements for
The whole earth, and for now:
We dance! We share our true colors!
That all the world might be happy
And sad at once, and know wisdom:
So with leaves, so with elders

:- Doug.
