The magic Of The Leaf
a leaf
fell once on
my chest while under
a tree I was taking a rest
It tickled a ripped-apart heart,
that's brimmed up with grief
in brief, never belittle
a fragile essence even
if a brittle
leaf

I loved it
This is so tender and real. The formatting is brilliant, not something I ever consider. Nice job throughout.

Hello Tim
It means a lot to know that you like it. It took a pretty good time to shape it and do all the alignment things and so, and I won't let the shape overtake the message between the lines.
Thank you for your time. Much appreciate it.

Thank you dearest Cat
I wanted ens as a lighter synonym for the word entity. I might not be the best choice. Any suggestions?
The over all meaning is not to belittle even tiny things or creatures

Magic of the Leaf
Hello, Rula,
This is gorgeous - in shape and poetry. I especially love the way the final leaf rests on the ground. Beautiful.

Everything about this including the creative formatting. You never fail to impress me with not only the elegance of your poems but how you are not afraid to try new things with them. Well done.
