Leaf's Valentine

Leaf tried to be me
leaf tried to take my place
drifting and carousing
even with no breeze
falling and sleeping
and they wonder how matter
accumulates how dirt gathers
into a human being
without noticing
it’s all movement
rising out of warmth
which must have come first
and remains unexplained
as immaterial as feeling
rising out of darkness
into light on leaves
