Leaves

Listen to the wind inviting Each leaf on the tree to dance And spin, as though in a Vortex, or to drift alone, Enjoying its freedom, and then to Sleep with its siblings on the ground. 4th September, for Francine’s Autumn Acrostic contest

O yes...that's what they do, go to sleep on the ground and then we have to wake them up before the snow starts. One love my friend! Joy Wells

Hello, Jack my sweet poet friend... I love the inviting sound of your poem. My mind is swirling with the beauty of the leaves in your poem. Now I do not feel like raking our falling leaves, from my oak tree.... at last they will sleep well by family and all... love your leafing acrostic... pd
