My Backyard

Tendrils tether themselves to tiles
Vines climb up the columns
Dust dances in the wind
The breeze gently lifts up my hair
Trees were reaching for leaves that escaped
Wind tempts leaves to leave the safety of their home
Wind whispered secrets
Secrets that would never be heard
The leaves flew across the wind whispering their secrets to each other
The leaves part ways, all going in separate directions
Ants climb mountains just to get home
My backyard
