LAST DANCE

BY
Jane Grau

A leaf
A Breeze
Graceful partners amongst
.............the barren trees.
No longer tethered to its host
.............the leaf floats free
.........................To make the most
Of these few seconds of descent.
..............In fragile flight so gaily spent
With unseen assistance it swirls around
Then settles gently on the ground.
Now leaf and breeze at rest and still
All choreographed by Nature’s Will,
It brings a smile, a feeling serene,
This performance, that to others went unseen.
