Leaves in fluttering sunlight
LEAVES IN FLUTTERING SUNLIGHT
I see them only out
of the corner of my eye
like falling leaves flying back
to the limbs
waiting
so shy
so patiently
to flutter down again
for a speck of bread
and a drink of water
from the crystal dish
dancing in joy before me
in a sparrow spectacle
which only some eyes can see

dancing in joy before me
in a sparrow spectacle

Author's Note
I was just feeding the critters. The squirrels came by earlier. The sparrows came by to show me a happy dance

You had me immersed and I felt myself transcending into your lovely picturesque narrative....
