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!
