LIFE, a whiff

I am the noise of the falling leaf of an autumn tree
Also the croak of the hungry toad
I am the voice of the shy koel
I am also the gurgle of the cascade
I am the trumpet of the tusked one
I am also the silk of the cocoon bed
I am the feel of the petal rose
I am also the rough of the turtle shell
What I am is what you are
The depth of the cliff
the shallow waters of a stream
A whiff am I just fragile
But one that holds life
I can bring you in or blow you out
Why then this fiery blaze
Breathe me like a breeze
And in bliss  I shall sail you out.
