Leaf
Blue skies envelop us
The trees towering into the sky
and here I am
a leaf
drifting in the wind.
Small, curled, and crackly
I float on the breeze.
A zephyr from the west carries me to the coast.
It gently lowers me down
like a mother setting down a child
after a long walk in the park.
I am just a leaf
but I am free.
