Perspective of a Winter Leaf Lyrics
Lingering on a brittle branch, I can see
the children in the hollow groves of frost at ease-
thistles buried to their necks in a frozen sea,
strawberries blooming on eager cheeks.
From high above, the wooded winter far below
beckons me with silk and song and falling snow.
With the wind’s caress, I sail away from all I know.
Many moons have passed since I have left my home.
Wanderers, in early light, have passed me by.
I find my place these chilly days by their side,
lost in winter wild.
My brothers and my sisters falling from the trees,
waltzing in the wind as they fall to sleep,
the crunching of our stillness just beneath their toes.
So much beauty in our resting souls.
The days have grown soft and still and shorter now,
with the dwindling of the breeze that shook us from the bough.
I will join them soon upon the weary earth,
but my oh my what a journey that it was!
the children in the hollow groves of frost at ease-
thistles buried to their necks in a frozen sea,
strawberries blooming on eager cheeks.
beckons me with silk and song and falling snow.
With the wind’s caress, I sail away from all I know.
Many moons have passed since I have left my home.
I find my place these chilly days by their side,
lost in winter wild.
waltzing in the wind as they fall to sleep,
the crunching of our stillness just beneath their toes.
So much beauty in our resting souls.
with the dwindling of the breeze that shook us from the bough.
I will join them soon upon the weary earth,
but my oh my what a journey that it was!
