Analysis of Journey of a dry leaf.



Journey of a dry leaf!

Where have you gone?
To the north,
Journey in the blink of an eye,
To somewhere the faith provokes!

Beyond the horizon,
You are flawless,
Needing no stranger to shed,
Tears on your journey!

You might have lost everything,
Or withered in a worst circumstance,
Where there are endings,
There are also  beginnings!

Carry on,
For you have fought your fate,
Your life time may have shortened,
And the  journey goes on and on!
-Swetha.

About this poem

Every journey Is significant in its own way. Be it even the journey of a dry leaf. Can one imagine what things and situations it might had gone through to start a new life? A journey is more of an action rather just a word.
