Autumnal Offering

The golden leaf

that settled

in the silver shell

 

still remains a guest

within my garden.

But sadly

 

the leaf is dying now.

Will it be there

in the morning

 

or be blown away

forever? That a single

dying leaf

 

can engender grief.

Was this

autumnal offering

 

synchronicity

reminding me

of the moment of now...
