Gathering Leaves
Gathering Leaves
Spades take up leaves no better than spoons and Bags Full of leaves are light as balloons
I make a great noise of rustling all day like rabbit and deer running away
But the mountains I race elude my embrace following over my arms and into my face
I may load and unload again and again till i fill the whole set and what have I then?
Next to nothing for weight and since they grew duller from contact with earth next to nothing for colour
Next to nothing for use but the crop is a crop and who's to say where the harvest shall stop?
