The brisk wind opened
Nature’s treasure chest
Found a golden leaf
Placed it right in my path
To glitter in the sunshine
Tanka
I was stopped in my tracks today by the sight of this leaf! It lay in the parking lot right by my car. It looked like it was painted with Gold Leaf Paint but it wasn’t. It was just a light brown leaf but the way the sun was shining on it it looked very golden Such an unusual sight. A pleasant surprise in my day. 😊
