The best of season to me is fall,
A brown leaf when ready is to fall
That a new one can sprout—
A rule so hard to flout,
Not just leaf alone, meant ‘tis for all.
And the best time of life too is fall
One is when ready for a recall,
The time of renewal,
Re-creation and all,
To evolve, inch by inch to grow tall!
