I've Still Got Journeys Poem by Mark Heathcote

I've Still Got Journeys

I'm a descending leaf
spiralling to the ground
and soon to be icebound
in unseasonal disbelief

I flutter and pirouette
as though quite absurdly
I've still got journeys
and dances for a discotheque.

Of course, I haven't though
but I can still look good
on my turf, my neighbourhood
in the embryonic throws
of another misplaced Romeo's
story of unrequited love.
