Great Fantasy

MY eyes saw the falling leaf
twirling upon the air
propelled by love

MY heart fell with leaf
upon tender moist grounds
unrealized beauty

I wept for nature's beauty
how astounding is she!
weeping along with lonely me

MY mind became separated by love
two pieces:  one for heart |
one for passion_______

So together we ran away into
the forest of greens

There, a great fantasy!

We lived.

Author's Note

I have a lot to say about this poem but some find my words about my poetry to be cheating their understanding.

Do not worry what others think. After all, YOU are the artist, my dear. We are but an audience of one. Sometimes we're not going to understand. Sometimes, the meaning is not lost at all, rather delivered in a way that is different than intended. I like to think of these moments as gifts. You provided a unique gift to many different readers.

Say the things you wish. We will understand in our way.
I love this. A blend of love and nature, or nature and love? It is uniquely yours.

I saw the twirling leaf descend in slow motion. Falling from the tree of life to settle on the ground. There is such beauty in the simple gifts that nature brings. Not everyone can see it or feel it. You do. A lovely piece EPR.

An ode to a leaf and how it falls, makes one think a lot about the connection between
two people. Very intrigued by your words. nicely written.

[Brad Dehler]

I appreciate the good energy and visuals in this poetry. Do not worry how others may perceive it- Keep making it and be true to you. In reality, nothing would be written if we were to consider everyone's input.

Hi Brad. I could care less what any one thinks. It's my words. I don't write for anyone. I write for love and understanding., Thank you for your kind words

The secret garden comes to mind. I'd love to watch it again.

Running away from the chaos of the world to live in your own bubble sounds like paradise surrounded by trees
