Autumn's Tale

There is an eternal tale,
That "all life is frail."
The Autumnal season speaks the word.
Fall is seen and Fall is heard.

Green leaves are the lungs of the earth.
And green is the color of life and its worth.
Brown is autumn's deathly call. 
Piles of compost littering Fall. 

There is an eternal tale,
That "all life is frail."
But is this tale really eternal?
Could there be something alive that's supernal?
When leaves will be green perpetually,
And life will march on indefinitely?
