Below are a poem and story passage written by the same person. HAIKU Five dead leaves falling upward onto the branches of a bare oak tree THE END OF WINTER As I approached, I startled a group of sparrows that had been feeding in the grass, and they flew up to the safety of an old oak tree. It was still early enough in the year that the branches of the tree were bare. But the bird songs and the warm sun made me feel certain that winter was ending.
