Leaves

.L e a v e s 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. By Robb A. Kopp All Rights Reserved © MMX

wonderful shape and I know how hard this is to do..if you put a . (period) before the L you can then move it over where you meant it to be. Light & Love

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
