Lone Leaf

the wind plays a tune

     beckoning the trees to dance

         ... lone leaf pirouettes

oops,I commented on this one at first thinking it was Kash's.I think because I saw his name on the winner list right before clicking on this poem. Well, gosh,Francine, this is absolutely one of the best haiku I have seen lately. So glad it made top place. Very well deserved win. Congratulations.
