   ... WHAT IS WRONG HERE?

   (define (next-leaf-generator ...)
     (letrec (... (recurse ...)) ...))

What is wrong here is that "recurse" is not a word.  (Check any
English language dictionary.)  I think you mean "recur," or perhaps
"recourse."  Derivatives of the verb "to recur" include "recurrent"
and "recursion."  If "to recurse" were to mean anything at all, it
would mean "to curse again," which, now that I think of it, might be
what you are inclined to do at this point.
