leaves are friends when they float to the ground riding the breeze whispering quietly their solace in rustle stories they talk to my feet as I walk and make soft damp music from old tree concerts strumming the leather of earth and soul when I lay down to rest beside the stream they are my friendly blankets like when I was a child they console me with their sooth sides and under now as I feed the worms and roots their nutrients my friends the leaves join me in harmony of soundless decay ©Dark |

and make soft damp music from old tree concerts OH yeah...there's a nice little path I know...past an old pool, overgrown with palmetto...tis lovely, the way the patterns play there... funny, I know this place, and I have never brought another being there...I just go there to fish for bass. And? I always let 'em go, too... |

DS I would fly, dangle my feet in oceans of air, back stroke above the street, my hair like black rain if I were not dirt bound, my nails filled and pungent with earth, each breath a memory that holds me. I loved your poem! |

(smiles) Oh my gosh, this made me smile so much reading this because it reminded me of going outside in the autumn and playing around in the pile of leaves on the ground! (big hugggssssss) This is sooooo beautifully and naturally uplifting, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |
