Some leaves are happy falling

some leaves are happy falling
they make a way for you when you are crawling
they beautify the tree when they are on them
and the path when they are not

some leaves are happy falling
for the freedom that seems so enchanting
to taste the air and sway with the winds
to travel and be where none has been

some leaves are happy falling
for the trees no longer need them
for the fruits need no protection
for the leaves need to rest
for a new leaf needs space
