    Got it in the mail.....A lovely poem reminded me of few friends...lucky to hv these few around...:)


    Falling Leaves



    I was thinking of old friends today

    and how many of them have slipped away.

    Moved, got married, or stopped calling so much,

    Found new friends, got busy, and just lost touch.

    It reminded me of falling leaves .

    Every autumn the leaves fall from the trees.

    Some stay longer than others, but eventually -

    Each leaf must fall, I'm told,

    leaving the tree alone to face the cold.

    Why is it that in the time of utmost need

    the leaves would seek to leave the tree?

    And when we need our friends around

    we look and they cannot be found?

    Of course these friendships come and go

    and in the spring new leaves will grow.

    But I prefer autumn friends of old

    with crackling laughter and colors bold.

    And then I thought of you.

    That one stubborn leaf that won't let go.

    That clings despite the winds that blow.

    Fighting ice, and snow, and winter's stings

    Hanging on right through till spring.

    So I guess that's what you are to me -

    The very last leaf to leave the tree.

    I know it seems silly, but it's true.

    When I see that last leaf...I think of you.
