It's autumn and we
are all
falling one by one,
the green is lost
to us
and we are all different
in color.
"We are of little faith,"
I hear
your voice in the
wind.
Yes, we are of little
faith.
A child has no weapons,
it is thrown empty-handed
into the world.
But now we all need protection.
Once we used sticks
and stones
to protect what was
ours,
but what was once
ours is
no more, the tree
is lost to us--
there is no security...
only death.
