i am but one leaf
not important me
i just gather a little sun
and a few breaths
when it rains, a catch
a drop or two.
one leaf, not important me
but as a part of community
as part of a tree...i help
the world ....i run the world

i am just a leaf,
lying, dying on the ground
not important me
just decaying rotting
fibourous bit of dead tree
not important ******* me

but as community
as mulch and compost
i helpΒ Β protect the tree
and i help feed the world

dayumn!!
i am leaf
and
i amaze me....
just a quick freeflow for joe cole's prompt
(although not sure i class as young, joe..lol)

.....it is all about perspective
people
we are all more important than we believe
and we are all one leaf on a great big tree... humanitree.
