Wonder

 Every particular in nature, a leaf, a drop, 
a crystal, and moment of time, 
is related to the whole and partakes
 of the perfection of the whole.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

What wonder in a single leaf
That floats softly - sadly to the ground;
In another world, the leaf's dimension, 
Is there a screech of pain
Or a sigh of relief, a squeal of joy,
A" humpt" of humility at the come down?
I wonder, wonder, wonder what
It's like to be a fallen leaf!
