The kids and I have raked
the leaves
into one big
pile
which I
am sure you hoped
would be dumped
in the woods
Forgive us
we could not resist
the impulse
to jump

The same spirit as WCW's poem--both so sensual--both drawn by impulse. This is beautiful.
Oh, Edie, can I jump in the pile of leaves?
That is so fun!
Who can resist a pile of leaves!
Wonderful poem Edie.
Thank you all for your comments! This has been a fun exercise.
And thank you, Edie, for taking me back to autumn, when the weather here in Minnesota is decidedly winter.
