Leaf came to rescue <br />To protect privacy <br />Of the first couple <br />Adam and Eve. <br /> <br />A leafy tree lets <br />The home hide with pride <br />Behind thick branches <br />With shade on the side. <br /> <br />Tender new leaf <br />Or the one lush green <br />Dangling yellow one <br />That's ready to fall <br />Or a fallen leaf <br />Light and dry <br />Blowing away <br />With the wind <br />Each one shows <br />Its own hidden charm. <br /> <br />Leaf of the palm <br />In variety of forms <br />Turned into roofs <br />Of early abodes <br />Giving us shelter <br />To lead healthy lives. <br /> <br />Leaves of trees <br />Provided the means <br />To record art <br />Create letters <br />Write our history <br />And out heritage. <br /> <br />Trees are many <br />Leaves're many more <br />Adding beauty <br />To the scene eyes see <br />Leaves let life <br />Retain its value <br />Leaves let our <br />Tradition remain. <br /> <br />Amazing is the leaf <br />Amazing its role <br />We owe a lot to the leaf <br />It's my strong belief.<br /><br />Tirupathi Chandrupatla<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/amazing-leaf/
