Outside My Window

The wind is blowing All the leaves spreading On the backyard lawn On the wooden deck Are a few leaves stuck Only moving when- The wind is blowing One leaf I noticed I am drawn to it The shape of a hand Staring at it-I notice Two fingers and thumb This is a leaf stuck In the crack of the deck

Dear Darlene De Beaulieu, I have pictured that leaf as if were laying on my back porch. It's funny how a single leaf is much like a single cloud. Our imaginations can take us to wonderful places. Have a lovely evening...Charlie
