Ernestine, this simple poem about a simple leaf is certainly 'a pleasure to the mind.' It is, as you have so eloquently stated, 'a sculpture so beautifully designed.' A masterpiece! ! Brian

Beautiful Ernestine, I felt as if I was holding that leaf and watching the spider skuttle away. Warm wishes, Justine.

I love leaves and trees, but even if I didn't I'd love this poem. A moment caught in time. Thank you!

Dear Ernestine How beautiful this moment that you caught so well.Reminded me of a poem called Angels. It goes something like this: Angels A man on the street is pointing up to the sky. 'Look, An Angel! ' he yells. Passerby Laugh. 'You fool, that is only a cloud' How wonderful it would be to see angels Where there are only clouds. How sad it would be to see only clouds where there are Angels. Hope You liked it Love Duncan

Ernestine, simple yet effective, with a hint of humour is this well written work of autumnal color. Lovely rhyme with a smooth flow and impeccable imagery. Nice work! :)
