There
are round ones and ovals
and
curved crescent moons;
slim
slender stems-
ends
shaped like a spoon.
Some
are elliptic-
plain
simple curved forms;
others
look like a kidney-
a
stark reniform.
L o n g linear leaves
are
narrow in shape;
their
parallel veins
seem
to e l o n g a t e.
Oblong
leaves
are w i d e r in width;
b r o a d deltoid leaves
have a
thin pointed tip.
But my
favourite of all
is
shaped like a heart;
two finely
curved sides-
earthy
natural art.
Veins s t r e t c h i n g out-
tiny
branches of arms;
I pick
one up-
a
lucky charm.
