back to the earth

Row upon row

faded petals

a crow squawks
calling for another soul

this place of deathly silence
often offers the only comfort


Where have you been?

Are you here?



the rainbow of leaves
will soon fall lifelessly back to the earth

the warmth of the sunlight
awaits to be replaced by the bitter bite of winter

Death is closing in
