if you knew but
one leaf  could you imagine
a WHOLE TREE  branchy  soaring  tilted
whatever?                                 

if you knew but one tree  could you imagine 
a FOREST  dense  murky-green  p a r k y        
pierced with sun beams  whatever?               

if you knew but this FORest  could you imagine
the WHOLE VEGETATION OF THE WORLD  all the swamps
prairies  fields  tundras  colourful gardens?   

if you knew but the whole vegetation of the world
could you imagine this WHOLE WORLD with glaciers
wavy oceans and deserts  tangled nets of roads? 

    and what else?                             
if you already knew the WHOLE WORLD  could you
 imagine only one
tiny leaf trembling shyly
'cause touched with a bird's song?      


if you knew but this song  could you
                  imagine
the whole music?
