Analysis of Proud Life
I saw the yellow leaf down river land
some was out and some was inside sand
I became wonder to seen their life
there were indication of demise of leaf
My eye goes on near tree jade leaf
as all were moving like others fend
One of them has kaput as came down
beside to same yellow leaf rand
look like first was questioning with him
how did you ruptured with leaf's joined
he said a powerful blow coming towards
us and only have busted me from grand
first said your youth has defunct and
now you have to wait for death taste
would not proud on youth and breath
/after the demise, it cannot be mend
