Autumn

Leaves falling one by one
Blown around by the wind
They twist and twirl in delight
Free from branches strong grip

Floating down one by one
Gently carried by the wind
Carpeting hugging mother earth
Filling her with eternal bliss

Smell as Sweet

“A rose by any other name would smell as sweet” is a popular reference to William Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet, in which Juliet seems to argue that it does not matter that Romeo is from her family’s rival house of Montague, that is, that he is named “Montague”. The reference is often used to imply that the names of things do not affect what they really are. This formulation is, however, a paraphrase of Shakespeare’s actual language. Juliet compares Romeo to a rose saying that if he were not named Romeo he would still be handsome and be Juliet’s love. This states that if he were not Romeo, then he would not be a Montague and she would be able to get married with no problem at all.
