What the falling leaves whisper back: a poem

This artwork is titled “What the falling leaves whisper back”. What do you feel the falling leaves whispering back?

I love that one of my friends, Beth Baugh, wrote this beautiful poem in response to the artworks title. Here’s what she says the falling leaves whisper back…

There is joy

In letting go,

In flying into

The unknown

With abandon,

Seeing

How the sunlight

Illuminates our friends

And finally realizing

We shine as brightly.

What do the falling leaves whisper back to you?
