posting this since it's an English thing and it motivated me (deadlines motivate me...>>) to write this little poem right here. It's not much and it's only been revised once. But I hope you guys will enjoy it. It's part of my experimentation with rythm...

Trees and Leaves
From what was a seed, I come to ponder
is now a tree that makes people wonder
of the events that it has witnessed.
Stretched out to the sky, its leafy arms were
giving shade when those hot days were but a blur
Then I remember days of summer
And when I look above, I see the leaves
where in their union, the light above they weave
and make yellow patches on the ground
When I think of their cooperation—
In inventing their beautiful creation
I think of the multitude of them
In truth, it was the leaves that provided shade
And the cool places where the children have played
and yet they depend upon the tree
I wondered if the tree is to admire,
Since the leaves are the ones that most inspires
As I sat under the tree's cool shade
