Autumn Leaves (Poem)

Autumn Leaves, By XP
　　09/04/06
　　
　　Flying Autumn leaves
　　Have treaded for a whole summer
　　Free at last
　　In the sighing wind
　　Don't disturb, please
　　This short returning journey
　　Not carved in the growth ring
　　Are scattered memories
　　
　　The first raindrop in the spring
　　Awakened a trembling villus
　　Life was impatient
　　To spread toward sunlight
　　Youth, is meant to be curious
　　Let the melody flow
　　As if it can stream into eternity
　　The simplest happiness
　　Was full of butterflies, flowers
　　And a singing creek
　　
　　It doesn't matter
　　Whether the turning season
　　The voice of cicada
　　Used to penetrate the heart
　　And how you sustained
　　The thunderstorm and
　　The long dark night
　　Weeping, or striving
　　Time never judges
　　Swiftly it washes away
　　All the marks in the past
　　
　　So when this day comes
　　In the farewell of finale
　　Smile in silence
　　Rise, turn, glide
　　In the far horizon ahead
　　There is still fledgling life
　　Soft, soft
　　My friend
　　This is not an elegy
　　This gentle and secret whisper
　　Is the best gift you give to me
