Brittle
Dry September blooms — /
dead, brown, and brittle bouquet — /
your dark beauty shines.

“No return”
No return
It feels good, Beth said. /
She snapped off dead lily heads, /
dropped them to the ground. /
This evening, I did the same, /
but she did not return.

Few
On a dead tree, /
even during a downpour, /
a few cherry blossoms.

Graveyard
Do not wrong the dead. /
The graveyard is full of fools /
who in life found none.

“Play”
Play
Rolling in the brown grass, /
among the fallen dead leaves, /
play knows no season.

Honor
To honor the dead, /
the living must now remember: /
they are not alone.

Leaf
Long shadows, dead veins, /
leaf stuck in blueberry bush. /
Reading the future.

The dead and living /
Occupy the same domain. /
Sharing rain and sun.
