It reminds me of parts of this poem Like a leaf in the wind Her soul flutters like a leaf in the wind Clinging on to tree of life With nothing more than hope Devoid of pretense Shorn of desires Tossed about, at the whim of a gathering storm Dark cold has slowed the sap But deep inside, life fights to surge through Longing for the next sunny day When the sap will ease through fluid pathways Until then, her soul flutters like a leaf in the wind On a high branch she clings alone While the other leaves huddle Warm in their numbers Sheltered in low branches Wondering how she has lasted so long While her soul flutters like a leaf in the wind When the storm blows harder, She sometimes feels close to giving up And sinking quietly to the ground below Returning to dust, from where she arose But something in her refuses to let go While her soul flutters like a leaf in the wind So come wind, come storm, Blow as you might She will cling on to the tree of life This lone leaf will fight.
