once in a great while snow falls straight down -- no icy slants no whirling dance -- past Autumn's bewildered leaves

Great choice of words but of course leaves are bewildered, hanging on "by a thread" . . . ..

You paint a clear picture with this Imagism poem Gershon. So many form each part of creation can take. Bill

Thanks for the support on my attempt at Imaging, Bill. Here's to more leaves and less snow. :) gw
