Virginia Salter If I were a tree I would be a deciduous in her autumn and my words and my thoughts would float down from my branches my limbs and settle at my feet and float on the wind seeking their resting places the places where they would protect first then feed the very heart of where they landed melting into the earth beneath them waiting to become a part of the future of all that they had touched © June 27, 2001 [This message has been edited by VAS (edited 06-27-2001).] |

Ethereal; yet poignant. I like both the imagery and the clever shape of wording. Reminds me of a watercolor whose fresh paints are seeping into their permanent residences. -MVS "If you think you know it all, you have a lot to learn." |

These words are as beautiful as they are recyclable. |

Thanks all, your words touch me and rs, you brought a chuckle...recyclable...a very important trait for certain and very much in keeping with the poem, as well. |

I followed the leaf all the way from its height to its waiting. Nice piece of writing. |
