Curved Leaf

Cursed by the autumn
With a lost decorum
Lies the shrunk oaken leaf
As though full of grief

Curled and furled
Within winds of time whirled
As though swirled and twirled
Isn’t this a ruthless world?

Yet she comforts the little cat
That naps as though within a mat.
With autumnal lethargy  
Hugging her heartily
