They're just leaves I told him
vagabonds and troubadours
anxiously waiting
to tangle with fate

liberation upon gyration
on the edge of the breeze

off they frolick
in the dance
of the season

with broom in hand
I watch them go.

Haha! Gotta love it, and I do . . . Buncha vagabonds and loafers . . .

Very unique depiction. I say let them stay for awhile. They're just leaves.

I can picture this in my minds eye so well.
Love the sill life and how your words gently stir.

Wonderful poem, EmmaRose~
It's been a while and I'm so happy to read you again.
