To a Fallen Leaf In Waving Shadows

A little tittering bird
pecking in snow?  No.
A little brown leaf
stuck in snow—Shivering;

In the cold wind,
strange indeed;
the eyes seeming
to see and ears hear
silent sounds softly
streaming
in the glittering snow;

Waving shadows
of happy trees
waiting the leave
of melting memories.

I love this poem! The bird, the leaf can be an imagery of us,.human who faces upheavals in life but stay to be resilient.
