Rustling of the leaves used to be my lullaby,
In the sunny south when I was a tot so high,
And now that I have grown
And myself alone.
Cradle me where southern skies can watch me with a million eyes,
Oh sing me to sleep,
Lullaby of the leaves
Cover me with heavens blue and let me dream a dream or two,
Oh sing me to sleep,
Lullaby of the leaves.
Im breezing along, along with the breeze,
Im hearing a song, a song thru the trees,
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh.
That pine melody caressing the shore familiar to me, Ive heard it
before ooh ooh ooh ooh.
Thats southland, dont I feel it in my soul,
And dont I know Ive reached my goal,
Oh sing me to sleep,
Lullaby of the Leaves.

Lovely bokeh and terrific tones. Very moody and visually appealing.

good golly miss molly - what a great image - the crazy cool background to frame the passing of the single leaf is so well done - the poem is pretty cool too!

Wonderful title and superb bokeh. This is one of those shots where the bokeh IS the picture. The leaf is a lovely accent to the bokeh.
