One Petal

I watch at the last minute a solitary petal falling from the cracked bough through thin glass of my window-- it rustles and soars way high along a grappled wind, sailng over the chilly vale . It aligns with a hundred other petals, all together waltzing in space. Watching their unrehearsed dance in glorious animation, a tear of awe smudges my eyes. Contest No 415-- Brian Strand 03.25.2018
