“A leaf-
-dark red and yellow-
fell”.
When did it fall?
“I don’t know”.
How did it fall?
“No idea..”.
What sound did it make?
“Never heard…..”
What was the tree like?
“Not sure………..”
Where is the spot the leaf fell in?
“No way………………”
Then how do you know it fell at all?
“…………because… a butterfly-
-dark red and yellow-
flapped her wings,
……and soared”.
