Dead Leaves
,

When these dead leaves were green, love,
November's skies were blue,
And summer came with lips aflame,
The gentle spring to woo;
And to us, wandering hand in hand,
Life was a fairy scene,
That golden morning in the woods
When these dead leaves were green!

How dream-like now that dewy morn,
Sweet with the wattle's flowers,
When love, love, love was all our theme,
And youth and hope were ours!
Two happier hearts in all the land
There were not then, I ween,
Than those young lovers' -- yours and mine --
When these dead leaves were green.

How gaily did you pluck these leaves
From the acacia's bough,
To mark the lyric we had read --
I can repeat it now!
While came the words, like music sweet,
Your smiling lips between --
"So fold my love within your heart,"
When these dead leaves were green!

How many springs have passed since then?
Ah, wherefore should we count,
The years that sped, like waters fled
From Time's unstaying fount?
We've had our share of happiness,
Our share of care have seen;
But love alone has never flown
Since these dead leaves were green.

Your heart is kind and loving still,
Your face to me as fair,
As when, that morn, the sunshine played
Amid your golden hair.
So, dearest, sweethearts still we'll be,
As we have ever been,
And keep our love as fresh and true
As when these leaves were green.

Namaste Vaibhav

I like the gradual deformation from horizontal at the top, to diagonal lines at the bottom. Well seen!

If I can give an idea, you can try to find this palm leaf and include where those lines getting closer and finally meet.
It will give a sense of leading line for the viewer. Post processing is interesting, but for the color, you can try to bring up more some brightness and saturation

Hello Vaibhav. Excellent work on this palm leaf. The dryness due to the aging process brings out wonderful texture and you have framed it tastefully. Regards. Jusni

HI Vaibhav
Very ingenius idea taking this photo.
It does tell a story while showing texture and lines.
Also with your framing it also gives us an idea of what time could do. You have all the elements required.
Excellent in my book.
