#leaf

"There is another alphabet, whispering from every leaf, singing from every river, shimmering from every sky."

"A withered maple leaf has left its branch and is falling to the ground; its movements resemble those of a butterfly in flight. Isn't it strange? The saddest and deadest of things is yet so like the gayest and most vital of creatures?"

"I fall in love with you four times a year: winter, spring, summer, and fall. The leaves may change, but how I feel about you does not."
