Dismantling
Dismantling the tree: /
ornaments, lights, memories. /
Packing the past. /
No music to comfort me. /
Watch what the sock monkey sees.

Bare tree, empty house: /
silhouetted by the setting sun, /

Laughter
I hold up the sky!
boasts the Catalpa tree.
Overhead, clouds laugh.

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.

Life
Mushrooms grow on death, /
turning a lifeless tree trunk /
Into life support.

Light through the limbs
Light climbs the night limbs, /
Touching bare the winter trees. /
Moon a ripe, white fruit.
