Fantastic, talks to me about old age, freedom, the countryside, winter and spring. I used to live near a forest in Weardale in County Durham. That last leaf is unique isn't it?

This is well expressed. I love 'the shifty air' and 'etching nervous patterns'. You watch the leaves and wonder how they can cling on. Very seasonal.

Really enjoyed this. Gave me a shock of recognition as it reminds me to a poem I wrote years ago, using some of the exact same words! But it was not at all as well conceived and realised as your poem.

Lovely observation, giving the little leaf a character. But does he know what's coming next?

Yes, 'the little leaf' has come again, from August, when many persons then made comments which were much appreciated. I have revised the explicitness of the idea, which may resonate in greater harmony during this autumn season.
