Fugacious Echo






It was a leaf that fell
Because it had missed winter
It is lonely to be
The last dry leaf on a tree

     It was a raindrop that fell
     After all snow became river
     A drop of rain to the river
     Is just snow born again

          It was a goodbye I watched
          Before the storm angered the sea
          A name I kept unwhispered and shy

               For the leaf had fallen
               And the raindrop had become sea
