Feathers, Petals, Leaves

by Hannah White

​

The beauty in falling  

In gravity freed  

Small things collected  

Feathers and  

Petals and  

Leaves 

  

Piled up  

Or distant  

Found by a breeze  

These little secrets  

Light as you please 

  

Each with a story  

Hidden beauty beneath  

To be in a place and find  

Feathers and  

Petals and  

Leaves 

  

A feather of blue  

Leaves orange  

Petals pink  

Few colors there are  

To appear on all three 

  

Fall on the ground  

Perhaps touch the sea  

The delicate beauty of  

Feathers and  

Petals and  

Leaves
