And Then I Will Leave You To Rest

I see you weathered ones
as the wind has blown
and your day is done
or not.

Maybe,
 you just landed
 on the window sill
to rest a while until
the breeze
leads you
 gently through
 another day or two
before the soil
 covers you
for sleep.

Then
 compost comes
to nourish the trees
as this season of autumn leaves.
