Burnt Umber

Year after year of pruning and growth
Formidable burnt umber from lanky sienna youth
There comes a time, each year, when they
turn over a new leaf - forge a new way.
Beliefs remain but ideas are born
Between the two, they're perennially torn
Still, year after year, they give it another try
And as they shed, so do I.
