The Turn of the Leaf

On the turn of the leaf
On the fall of the flake

An indiscriminate
Angle reveals a dimension
Unknown only a moment before.

A world unfolds in
A blink; a universe
Becomes real in an instant

And then it is gone.

Thoughts thought
In the evening by
The fire

Are gone in the morning.

Resolve found in
The Vesperal light

Vanishes with the rising sun.

Set adrift in a
World that changes
On the apparent whim
Of the wind

We find either
Wonder or chaos
In the awe and grandeur
That churns and churns

Every particle of life
All around us.

Ciao!
