are on the ground.  We wait 

for the Spring winds and storms,

the first grass cutting.  We have formed

a pack to let things be as they are,

The art of knowing when to do nothing 

is a serious art form, capricious,

graceful, full of beauty and patience – 

to many utter foolishness.  But the leaves

and I disagree.

-Byron Hoot
