Leaf Song

Universe-collapse
has multiple address;
the better known
such as sand-grain
and the less acknowledged;
thought strain and wordlessness
string-less kites and waters missed by cartographer
the word that could have changed the world
but was not said
the tongues that held peace as others wagged,
but among innumerable residences
I prefer leaf
for color, texture, shape
for breaking forth from hard black timber
for dancing with breeze
curling with sun
for fall and softening for kick or footfall
for fertilizing
again and again.

  1. Yes, leaf can proudly sing.Because she has the most beautiful voice in the world.She is the only creature that acknowledges the kiss of sun so tenderly and produce something that help us to continue our lives.......
