a leaf drifts to the ground
landing with grace
perhaps
it has been carried on wings of wind
and soared for miles
before its adventure exhausted it
and is now laying down to rest
a gust passes through a field
each blade of wheat bending
the end of one toying with the next
perhaps
they are all fallen soldiers
and are holding on to each other
for comfort amidst gales of doubt
a snowflake flutters from the sky
blown gently through the mist
perhaps
it is a ballerina
dancing without care
lost in her own rhythm
a bud peeks out from the ground
a speck of colour
against grey slush
perhaps
it has seen the light
and braved the cold
to find the sun again
a bee flies to a bloom
to feed on nectar
perhaps
like the pollen stuck on its knees
sweet memories of spring
will stick in its mind
a wave rises to the baked shore
lapping at a child's feet
perhaps
it is inviting him to
the calm relief
found in its cool embrace
a ray of summer sun falls on a poet's face
prompting a smile
perhaps
it is reminding her
that there is joy to be found in life
if only one continues to live it
