the lesson of the falling leaves

This poem is only one stanza and is not a complete sentence or correct punctuation because there is no punctuation mark or capital letters what so ever.This poem contains six lines and as I was reading the poem something significant. The first and last lines are the only lines that do not start with "such". I also noticed that the lines in between lines 1 and 6 play off each other and make it meaningful. There is something that i caught in the poem that i did not understand because the word God should always be capitalized and I dont understand why its not. Maybe it is because the poem does not use any punctuation at all or maybe the poet just didnt feel it was needed??? I really enjoyed this poem and the message that it sent in saying that all you have to do is believe and trust yourself that you can over come an obstacle!!! This was a great, short, and loving poem and im glad i chose it
