I Love Leaves

A poem by Amiel

Leaves are small

Leaves are yellow

I love leaves

That’s something I know





You can’t hold leaves

‘Cause they’ll escape

Your hug is useless

Like a paper plate





Leaves are beautiful

That’s something I say

It’s also a fact

I can’t escape





I dislike it

When I rake leaves

It annoys me like

Seeing a crease





I love leaves

But hate to rake them

When I see the plenty

It makes me hate them
