Ember leaves
Lay merciful
Bridging voluminous long-reaching limbs
Envy, life's complection of nature
Signifies growth at its inimitable
Harmonizing the balance of seasons
Autumn is in excess
The bare evergreen amples with zest
Animation set in motion
Embarks on creation
Life once again began anew
Author notes
I wanted to use something that wasn't so blunt to religion but finding faith in nature seeing that its gods creations and his gift to us. Also
Something that should all come natural, we should look around us and see that it takes its course. Using the life of a tree seems emotional to me, the way it goes from bare
To nothing at all then grows with new life and I especially used envy, envy signifies green life something we all want which is envy.

Nature is merciful in its core, the way it was created, even in death, there is rebirth. Beautiful poetry.

I forgot to add:
Harmonizing the balance of seasons
Autumn is in excess
The bare evergreen amples with zest
Animation set in motion
Embarks on creation
Life once again began anew

Thank you
Yeah I knew using the big words for such a short poem might be dangerous but, I made it clear as day so no confusion would go on. I wanted to make it so someone would want to keep reading. Also meaningful at the same time. Thank you a lot for commenting the poem. Refreshing and new that made my day. I've been writing all week and I love this one the best.
