Two leaves chase along the road beside me
a pile catches a breeze and twist and swirl and dance.
The car in front of me draws them out from the verge
invited to the party by the sudden whoosh of air.
My headlights catch a golden carpet
churning in front of me
playing like children
falling like snowflakes
blanketing my windscreen
swamping my wipers
then finally - disappearing into the dark as I pass and my headlights fade to the distance.
