The Whole of It


Have you see the wind teasing leaves on the pavement?

Frenzied tackling.

Right there. That's life.
The whole of it.

The color of fire.

Then dried and fallen...

Swept up nuisance
Taken by surprise
all stirred
battling
clinging
fighting lightly

Beauty and waste
Time and forgotten

Overpowered whirlwind of decay

Life.

Right there.
The whole of it.
