the fingers of the leaf – v3


watching from my seat
out the office window
a drama unfolding
in the midst of the storm

buffeted by the wind
as the storm raged on
pierced by the ice, the sleet,
torn but still resilient

the fingers of the leaf
wrapped around the twig
as the wind relented
but ripped and torn

twisted and turning
by the wind’s resurgence
holding on for dear life
as the leaf is able
