One Leaf Dangled
one leaf dangled from
a single spider-web strand
in fresh morning air
as I greeted the sun,
sitting under a tree in
my dew-filled backyard
I was stilled by the
beauty of this lone leaf, in
its simplicity
But, then the leaf fell
I was startled, but the joy
in my heart remained
**morning, noon, night senryu contest
