Last Leaf

Last gullible green leaf
clings smug to fragile fulcrum,
rustles, shudders in pale sunshine,
fights ruddy rush to fall, spinning,
to rest mellow on untidy forest floor.
Subliminal message: Time is short


This is a response to a wordle from http://sundaywhirl.wordpress.com/2011/11/27/wordle-32/ using the words "rush, mellow, gullible, rustle, smug, shudder, fulcrum, sunshine, ruddy, untidy, subliminal, spinning"

    I like what you did with these words; and yes, time is VERY short.

    I like the image in this--that last gullible leaf. An important message.

    I love the way you worked the words and lines. A real attention getter beginning with the gullible leaf and ending with the message. Love this.
