THE LEAF

No one can tell another
just how to discover
that place where you no
longer hear nor fear the
tick of time.
But with that in mind
watch a falling
leaf sometime and
allow yourself to
feel the grace
and joy
and fluidity of its
descent…
Simply ride that leaf and
see where it may take you.

    I like the way the middle section with the leaf falling is framed by the opening address and closing directive. Also how the poem gets skinnier as the leaf is falling, slowing the reading.
