Green Leaf

Green Leaf

Floating green leaf along the stream
Where is the branch you grew up with?
Disconnected to chase your dream?
Must be scary to keep going
On path unknown beyond the bend
Stream might end and stop on flowing
Come back to where you've come my friend.

Under the tree I sat and cried
Thanks to the young man who has tried
To dry the tears I cannot hide.
Love has grown, has drawn us to swear
To be apart we'll never dare
He gave a gift, a special friend.
The leaf he saw beyond the bend.
