Last Dance (make it last)




November 13th sunny and clear autumn blue sky and the Oak leaves were falling so slow, thoughtfully as if not to disturb. Shhhh, I don’t wanna make a big deal, let me just go. 

(He just raked you know?)

Three times throughout the day, it caught my eye,  I turned expecting to see someone walking to me, waving Hey! but no.

Oh my goodness. A. Leaf.
Flitter.
Maybe like this,
(testing) see and like….that…weeeeeeeee
a giggle Awwww I don't want it to end
Enjoying its last dance.

I saw each of those three waving, slow dancing, silly leaves through to the finish. To the earth.

Goodbye. 

Bye! 

We have to rake again on Saturday.
