Leaf
Look! Every leaf is a curve in a greater circle
winding inward into perfection,
a cryptogram coding a momentary perception.
See the spiral in the spiral?
See the conjunctions,
the branch upon the branch conundrum?
All this arriving together,
unfurling universal connections.
And something else;
all I really know and all I do not understand,
are there In this one fallen leaf.
