The Circle

A Poem by walt whitman

Please No CSS

The last leaf

                       Let

              go

By the all

            Powerful maple.

Swaying to the

Ground below,

 Like a hammock swings

                                Back and forth-

            Back and forth-

    Happy-

 

For it knows it will reach its kin at the end of its journey only to be reborn again the coming spring

Awesome way of arranging the words to depict the back-and-forth fall of the leaf! I like playing with that sory of thing in my own poetry. Good job!
