and now for something completely different

I've been on a bit of a poetry kick lately. I am no poet, but this one has been simmering in my mind for a while. I share it with you, in honor of fall.

There's beauty in the green of leaves,
Joy and hope in growing,

And beauty in the brown of fall,
Beauty in the dying.

My faded greens give way to brown,
Grace and joy in falling;

I die to self and wait to see
Beauty in renewing.

You're wrong, my dear, dear daughter - you most certainly ARE a poet!
