Autumn leaves, what do you sing me from?
Whispering, trembling, floating in September breath of air
You sing me from having no fear of falling
Of becoming earth again
Of being reborn to something yet unknown
Something old and entirely new
An oak tree leaf might become a hazelnut
A dandelion might become a rose
You sing me from your willingness to let go
You sing me from your knowing
Of being part of something bigger
Of something that will never die
No matter how many storms may shake it
No matter how many winters may come
What do you sing me from, autumn leaves?
Sing me from eternity
Whisper to me
About the fearlessness
Of All-there-is
