The Green Leaf

THE GREEN LEAF. Seated in the morning sun, I saw it fall, The journey down; relaxed, unhurried, It owned the wind on that sunny day. I saw it fall, With the grace of a queen, It owned the wind on that sunny day, The landing, ‘twas soft and perfect. With the grace of a queen, It meandered down, The landing, ‘twas soft and perfect, On the wet warm ground. It meandered down, This shiny new leaf, On the wet warm ground, It curled itself with a smile as I watched, Seated in the morning sun.
