Fallen leaves & rubbish
scattered together

strange bedfellows

the rain riffling
through their dreams

leaves
steamy in the sudden sun

see their ghosts now

rise to heaven

leaving rubbish
behind.

Aha, but wait...leaves, rain and sun, all together, melt into leaf mulch...the richest there is....never rubbish, but rich mulch for a flowerbed....There is something good in everything I see....QUEEN
