    Leaves on the bus glass
    pressed flat against the city
    window, riding along
    
    Let me check the syllables: "Leaves on the bus glass" (5), "pressed flat against the city" (7), "window, riding along" (5). Good.

    Leaves on the Bus Window
    
    Wet leaves on the glass,
    the city bus hums onward,
    gold pressed to the rain
    
    Syllable check: "Wet leaves on the glass" = 5. "the city bus hums onward" = the(1) cit-y(2) bus(1) hums(1) on-ward(2) = 7. "gold pressed to the rain" = 5.
    
    Correction, plain poem only:
    
    Leaves on the Bus Window
    
    Autumn leaves cling tight,
    the city bus rolling on,
    gold stamped on the glass
