Leaf Storm
Nor'easter blowing -
Autumn leaves cling to branches,
Then are shaken free.
Swirling aloft on the wind,
They spiral earthward; leaf storm.
Autumn leaves cling to branches,
Then are shaken free.
Swirling aloft on the wind,
They spiral earthward; leaf storm.

lovely
Wonderful!!
Then another leaf storm, as Mike powers up his trusty leaf blower in an attempt to organize then into piles :)
I can see the leaves clinging to life on the trees - then being cast asunder. Great poem Mike.
Another great poem
wonderful article â™ thanks for sharing
If I could pick the storms I had to endure, I'd pick a nor'easter. They have a certain kind of powerful beauty.
Nice poem -
