Falling

like an acorn,

drifting down to a bed of emerald grass,

amidst a sea of crisp autumn leaves,

swirling like the color of flames,

crimson vermilion sunshine

scraping the dirt below.

but instead a breeze cuts off my course

and I come crashing down

onto concrete cold as ice,

only to crack

and eventually shatter.
