A leaf weaving its way down a flowing stream skitters windswept 'cross an autumnal lawn Once detached from a twig its life far too brief teasing undying belief ~ as green turns to grief

By now, perhaps you need a shovel for the snowflakes. (Hope not). ~ gw

Truly, when detached, not much to hang onto. Hugs ~ Kim

Nicely-written, gw. I think this is such a compelling theme for this time of the year.

Perchance the leaf may then ask ‘to whom does grief come, for I am not that’
