Leaves of the Day

 

Golden leaves on an oak tree blow, falling to the earth

At leave, a soldier heads to port ready to greet the ladies

Losing my busy job leaves me restless with nothing to do

Leaves of a family table make room for more guests to feed

When you choose to leave me, my heart will bleed without you

Finally I'm leaving my dreams of you behind, to pursue my own

Goodbye, my love, goodbye...watch as I leave

Found myself pondering the other day in the shower about all the diffrent uses of the word leave. Couldn't shake the thought. Let me know what you think

Like the leaves of autumn, the word itself has many colors, or rather context. Nice write!

Leaves of many types and hues...

Now, like a tree...I shall leaf ;)
