The Hole in the leaf
The leaf was all grown up
Dusty n fadin green
And a pretty deformed hole
That the caterpillar left
Let you see a tiny piece of the sky
And the fade of yellow and the black pots
And the whole in the leaf
All put together
Could easily make the centre
Of the dome of your home
And if you had a minute to ponder
you'd know how long it took
For the tree to grow so tall
And give birth to the branches
And the leaf
And how long it took the leaf
To grow up and shine so fresh
And how quickly it was
For the bug to just
Crawl its way to the angle of the leaf
And take away its green shinning glory
And leave it with a scar
That paved way for you
To see that tiny piece of the sky
Till the leaf loses colour
And gets all dry and yellow
And one fine windy day
i'll detach from its owner
And float away
Only to be crushed under the car tire
And just go back to where it came from
Just took a moment of a second to think that
Yet you would just pass by and admire
how pretty the sky looked
Through the leaf
The hole that a slug left
In that full grown leaf
All just so pretty
The hole in the leaf
