A Poem a Day (331): Boat of leaves

 
Boat of leaves
 
A boat made out of leaves,
sodden, sinking, red breeze.
You didn’t think it through,
trying to row across the night
to flickering starlit shores,
sparkles to be caught like fish.
This black expanse holds secrets
of time and space interwoven,
a lace of dancing lights
you will only see this once.
