LIKE ANY LEAF (E A D G B E)
Like any leaf in every tree. Brown and green. Shimmering.
A cool breeze. A warm afternoon.
Like any bee in any hive. A family. A drone strike.
An abhorrent crime. A tear in your eye.
Everyone looks down. They don’t want to be seen crying now.
And if you see all directions how will you know which one to take?
Like any street in every town. Open the windows. Take the bins out.
Cooking dinner now. Watch the sun go down.
Birds come to your door. You don’t have to sing alone anymore.
You see a path and you know for sure.
Like any smile on every face. In every street. In every house.
In everything that you care about.
Like any leaf in every tree. Brown and green.
Shimmering.
