A Fallen Leaf

Held in my hand a fallen leaf…
let go before the season: should 
I not question the reason, even those
of God? Or only the foul-play of
man?

Determined I traveled the veins,
like a palm-reader reading her
mark, some earnest applying thought
mystical craft – traveled did I the 
many meridians, like bread-crumbs
along a forest path...curiosity eating
away as I passed -- 

What learned I cannot say

What felt I cannot pray

Over-looking the greatest treasure

in retrospect found

entered the light of another day
