Journey of a leaf

Growing up in joy and sorrow
A little leaf lives on a tree
Spring, summer, fall and winter
Oh, how long will your life be ...
Then one day in autumn
This little leaf turns brown

Suddenly three days later
A squirrel pushes it down
Soaring through the sunset light
Keeps on going, even at night
Soon it goes down taking a break
There it sleeps and again awakes
Continues its journey far and wide
Taking its memories by its side
