A leaf, dreaming.

The office is aggravating. 
Rainbows separate the darkening servant. 
A mistake dreams. 
Longingly, beautifully hidden, an autumn leaf skis. 
It gives a calf to a fence no longer addled with pain.

  1. I always used to think work was the best (and worst) place to contemplate life..and alternatives..that little leaf provided you with a great thought and poem...

  2. Each line a poem in itself. I think I understand each line but the last one. What is the "it"?

  6. Work day reveries may benefit from a view of nature. When I think of a leaf skiing on the wind, I also think of the Forrest Gump feather.

  11. Very interesting final two lines. As I don't think they ever learn enough not to have a fence without pain.

  12. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me but clearly others differ.
