Skeleton of memories
Winter killed our tree. /
Don’t know if it was before, /
during, or after /
your death. Dead limbs hang barren: /
no buds, no leaves, no cherries. /
Skeleton of memories.

Silence
Fall leaves on a bench,
a pile of my yesterdays
all in dead silence.

Cravings
Halloween evening.
The dead amongst us this hour
crave “sweets” to devour.

Fists
Curled into dead fists /
brown leaves deny, then decay. /
Winter takes them in.

Many sunflowers are dead. /
The bee still finds work.

Shadow
The dead leaf’s shadow /
reflects from the bottom /
of a pool of air.
