drip from the sky. Colorful 
    foliage excites my eye.
          fresh new and shiny 
           clean.Some are green
         and others dry. Some plum-
   met down while others fly. When 
    they fall, they make me cry.In their 
    shadow Newton wondered why
   On windy    days they’re    tossed
                       , blown and
                    other times
                        thrown.

Carolyn Devonshire May 12, 2010 at 9:25 AM Amazing imagery in both your words and your layout, Robb. I heard a piece of the tree that inspired Newton was sent into space on the last shuttle flight. Enjoyed your reference to newton and the breezy nature of this poem. Love, Carolyn
