Patterns on the sidewalks Where the leaves had fallen Tracing their outlines deeply Of many shades of purples Seen in the glistening rain Where barely we speak We just watch as nature Draws an outline on the horizon Tracing the clouds colliding Feeling the brisk wind blowing Watching for the sun that’s hiding And has been hiding for days Careful our next step isn't off The wet leaves and wood Greased by a driving rain So many symbols to observe Like the great eagle’s emblem That adorns the high gates That separates the city spaces Joining and adjoining its lines Maps made out of electron screens Where we simple just bobble And enjoy all that goes on

About this poem:
Catching little title for my poem about patterns made by fallen leaves on freshly wet concrete. Hey I'm a struggling poet, need I say anymore? :)
