First leaf of Fall to fall

Yea, I shall be the first
Yet legions will follow
In my wake

I take the first step that
untold billions of my followers
Will also take

I am the first
Of an almighty
Vanguard

I shall lead them as one
Back to whence they rose from
To the loam of their reward

My followers will do
Exactly as I shall do
No question as to their fate

Their doom and mine
Tis written on the wind and
While I forge first the rest will wait

I’m not divine yet I’ve been chosen
Not truly a leader,
No not at all

I’m only the very (and it’s really quite scarey!)
The very first leaf That falls in
The fall
