Leaves At Dawn
Leaves at Dawn
Leaves at dawn show off
dark silvery sparkling charms,
like chandelier earrings dripping
with diamond dew drops.
In shifting shadows, leaves at dawn
silently contemplate sneaky spiders scurrying
from leaf to leaf, craftily spinning and weaving
widespread webs, hoping to trap a tasty treat.
A wee bit weary from blowing to and fro
in the cool night wind, leaves at dawn faintly quiver,
deeply inhaling and exhaling, relishing their own brand
of nature’s musky wild woodsy perfume.
Delightfully dizzy, leaves at dawn are still
drowsy and dreamy until gently awakened
by the enchanting kiss
of the sweet, warm early morning sun.
