Love Poem: Love

Love

Love is a leaf in the wind

Floats and blows and spins

Settles for a moment but a gust 

The gust steals it 

It settles on a lawn

But the wind snatches

Spins and flutters

Zigzagging the leaf

Till it is raked into a pile

Carried to the mulch

The leaf turns into dirt

The dirt is used to grow food

Or the leaves are raked 

And burned and the fire

Love is burnt till none
