A tree in my backyard has had the leaves on it all winter and the leaves have voices.

Kinda crisp tonight,

so smooth and refreshing it is.

The sound of leaves outside my window

ruffle in the winter wind.

On the tree so still and silent

these leaves are clinging still.

The cold night air I can not see

but sense that it is there.

Whispering quietly to itself

as the world sleeps.

The leaves do chatter,

but whats it matter

they sound so simply sweet.

In the Winter wind.
