Leaf

In my garden up the back,
Just behind a little shack,
There is something very tall,
But it grows something fairly small.

It is a nice dark green,
With veins that can be seen,
Smooth and shiny right to the tip,
Like a sail on a ship.

The wind will blow
This leaf will flow,
Finding its home in harmony,
Surely it needs no help by me.

There is more then meets the eye,
This little leaf is not shy,
So step outside and take a peck,
This world is unique.
