Thank you!
I paused while I raked the leaves
Many give thanks for the fruits
And even flowers
I paused to give thanks for the leaves
Who constantly breathed air
And received the sun and rain
Who endured all the storms and droughts
Now fallen and stamped on
Raked and gathered to be burnt
I remember all those leaves
Fallen ones
Nameless and many
My fathers and mothers
Brothers and sisters
Thank you!
Thank you!
