O fallen leaf, O fallen feather!

Indeed a great poetry but one can expose not impose in creative pursuits… In my knowledge [I beg your excuse] poetry is matter of inside of poet where no one can enter … Voted 10+ Ms. Nivedita UK

A good tribute, I liked the opening rhymed couplet and the repeat of the device at the end but think a little more work is needed.
