Three Green Leaves

three green leaves sit on my window sill,
the wind picks them up and I wonder where she will take them

three green leaves fly overhead,
as my umbrella flips up, I see them zoom past

three green leaves caught in the rain,
they sink slowly into a puddle on the footpath

and slowly they sink into the water,
like fruit* submerged in a cool pan of jelly

three green leaves

*please note that fruits such as watermelon and pineapple will disrupt jelly's ability to set. Use less watery fruits such as strawberries to avoid disappointment
