Life is like a tree
It has many branches 
Over time it grows
There are new avenues and nuances
The roots reach deeper into the soil
Seeking out precious nutrients and water
New leaves appear in the spring
Turning bright colors in the fall
Eventually leaving home
Falling to the ground 
As winter approaches trees sit bare
As if almost asleep 
Waiting again for a new season 
To start anew
Reborn
