Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers).

If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy.

If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that. If you're not sure what that means, check out our [feedback guide](https://new.reddit.com/r/ocpoetry/wiki/feedbackcritiques), or look 

Nice imagery but it was a little lost on me.

Leaves to a tree mean it's becoming what it was meant to be, it's final form, and it's also at it's most beautiful- this poem was odd to me, until I figured out why a tree would pray for it's leaves to come.

Doesn't try to rewrite literature, makes it's point and is done -- I like this poem

Gaze with our elm tree

Reaching high through sky as one

We beg for our leaves
