Xanthe,A lover of rustling autumnNight and day counted the leaves Twirling among the tired treesHand in Hand with magicObsessing over the tiny stems of brownPlucking the dead twigs with loveHanging them in the open skyYellow, orange, and red, she painted the colorsLife, Xanthe knew, was no more in themLoyal her heart was, saving them among the pages of an old favorite book.
