Beautifully decayed

I wish I was as good as weewilkie at writing beautiful prose and poetry as I feel this leaf deserves a poem to accompany it. 
I came across this leaf in the garden yesterday while weeding after giving the grass its first cut of the year (5000 paces on my fitbit). It is so small and perfect, the skeleton revealed to the world. I placed it gently inside the kitchen while I finished gardening and then when I came in I couldn't find it. Of course the door closing had blown it onto the floor and I was standing on it! Ah well, it bounced back for a photo session and here it is now immortalised on blip.
