I am but a leaf

Floating on the sea of life

The current goes so swiftly

I have no time for fright

My journey takes in all things

As I reflect my light

In the hope you will remember

The joys that I’ve got right

At times I have been guilty

Of swimming against her tide

But the movement of life’s energy

Has meant I could not hide

Now soon this journey will be over

Quite when I am not sure

But the current will continue

Just like it did before

For life is everlasting

A sea of what may be

As the earth she keeps on spinning

To the place where she’ll be free
