Only Human

rust reds and greens

yellows and browns

and maybe some

that appear orange

fall to the ground

each November as

rain comes to April

and our seasons

pass without decree

as do the years

most frequently

leave the past behind

for someone else

as the bridges to our

future have yet to

be constructed yet

it is into the future

that we all seem to go

without hesitation

or thoughts of delay

as aging out only

happens once for us

and for that we 

must feel fortunate

instead of losing our

leaves like trees and

growing new ones

every year and with

which we do no agree

on all things presented

and without a voice we

are merely human.
