Just One Bag

Leaves
beautiful red and gold leaves
wet beautiful red and gold leaves
rained down as heavily as the cold, wet rain
a brilliant carpet for sidewalk, steps and patio
extra leaves swept by yesterday’s wild wind into corners and crevices.

One bag - they all fit into one bag!

Whining about cleaning up all those leaves!
One bag - and they were leaves!
Not the heavy, wet snow covering the residents of Buffalo today
Perspective leant vitality to my efforts with broom and rake
Leaving sidewalk, steps and patio clean and tidy.

Sometimes we must unfocus our way to clarity.”
