Where do dead leaves go?
now mulch under falling snow
daubed in mud and rain
barren trees remain silent
awaiting promise of spring

Colleen’s weekly poetry challenge #63~cover, precipitation synonyms
Mum, author and dentist is how I describe myself. I love creating pictures from words. Sometimes a painter, other times a weaver- words are my tool; trying to create something beautiful. When I was nine, my dad introduced me to audio books. I was hooked. With his guidance, I fell into a world where words became life simply by weaving them together. So here I am, living out my passion- reading and writing! Enjoy the ride with me 😁😁
