Bismillah..


autumn

a light cool
and added warmth

sunlight filters through leaves
whose characters, began to change

a disarray of colors, 
each tree 
different
artistically
and biologically

life and death, the center stage
memories more pronounced
the mark of change
the mark of youth and age

"Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and earth ..  and what Allah has sent down from the heavens of rain, giving life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness ... are signs for a people who use reason." 
Al-Baqarah, 2:164

"..the trees are leaving," a five-year-old girl tugs at her father
"..where are they going?" he humours her
"..they're not going anywhere..they're just leaving," she insisted
the sight of red leaves from green
"wow Rory..you're not kidding."

the world stays the same, except for those who change 'em with their hands, their words or their hearts

O Youth, have you spent your life under the influence of k-pop or whatever the media has thrown at you, swept away in idleness? Like some trees to succumb to death in the throes of winter?

or are you actually doing something that benefits mankind? to realize the need to change ownself? to adapt with surrounding, to survive to see the next Springtime?

Hats of to you, O Youth, on your own choices, and on your own journey "Happy Youth Day"
