Correct. The leaf falls from the tree in autumn, hence the name of the poem. It loses its life all alone.
Well done, Parsifal. The trajectory of the fall follows a pathway which is not straight and the gaps between the letters displayed vertically, are uneven. Just as in human life, so also the leaf.
Lots more analysis than I have given you here has been made (of course), if you had wanted to cheat. I suspect you just took on the challenge without any internet assistance.
Smart and persistent lady are you!!!!
