Leaves Swarm by Diane Webster

Leaves Swarm
by
Diane Webster

On the ground leaves fall
like bees swarming
back to the hive
where wind whips
them into a frenzy
of massive movement.

Loved this sparse delightful poem with the unique metaphor of bees swarming back to the hive to descrive leaves being whipped into a frenzy by wind.
