raking leaves – November 15

11.15

raking leaves, blowing

leaves, feeling the

satisfaction

 

of cleaning my space,

cooperating with nature,

appreciating

 

the intricate design

that clings in each

leaf

 

so that more might

be born amidst all

the rough.

 

satisfying to clean,

clear, claim a space

of care

 

and collaboration

with life

in my time.
