Traitor


This poem is about the leaf which deserts the tree every time for its new found love and returns when it could not win over its love, it again returns home (that’s is it will come back to twig again)

 

Twigged in the springs of love

blossomed to the golden dew.

For I hate to see it now

followth the flowers which blew

 

Flown away to the sudden breeze

and couldn’t decide its stay.

In dire storms, it furls to cease

to set away on a merrier way.

 

The barrens of whose breast

and its cries, which it wouldn’t heed.

So it left the tree, slept at rest

in its own selfish greed.

 

In springs that would follow;

from the dust of its never found love.

it will return to its willow

and dance on the sticks, above.

The leaf does not divorce the tree. It is the tree which sheds the leaf when the leaf gets old.
Your preamble to the poem as also the poem try to portray the fact the other way round which may be hurting to the reader. This is just my feeling.
