What? A sign of illness? Why? How about this: As I look upward, these leaves’ beautiful pattern, nature in harmony.
Apparently, the leaves turning brown is a sign the tree is sick. Though the leaves are pretty, this tree is dying.
So that’s what you meant! The tree is sick, not you.
The irony is that I, too, am sick. But the poem was focusing on the tree. My germs probably directed my focus a certain way, though. 🙂
So sorry.
