Builds up a crystal clear pearl
The Breeze rocks and whirls

Vascular, photosynthetic ravines,
Cut deeply into the skin;

They morph from scar into the heart's sustenance.

This last autumn leaf
Without resistance it falls.
Then drifting gently,
It lands it's golden form
upon her soft, smiling face.

In stormy backwoods
Windy wail in huff 'n puff
Thus, no leaves rustling
Tumbling to the drizzle ground 
Desolate leaf settle down

Viceroy butterfly, remarkable
dead ringer for the Monarch
eggs overwinter, a rolled-up leaf
displaying their mother's motif

Three Leaf Clover

I was riding a round in my truck
When I ran over an Irish duck
While holding a clover
He knew it was over
He simply ran out of luck

As a Dry Leaf

As fallen dry leaf
 by the wind was swept away,
  that's how I took my life...
  all love and all the time,
  with all me inside...!

The leaf caught my eye-

      began moving with no breeze!

           Oh Katydid-

                   by God's magic, you survive!

Trees, oaken, shivering. Blustery winds change style with color. A rich raiment, till stripping them of leaves.

Four Leaf Clovers

I sat there for hours

Sprawled out on a carpet of green

Searching for a four leaf clover
