A poem I wrote in August of this year....

Untitled

When bones and feathers fade to dust

Who can say who passed here?

A small ring of fire blacken'd stones

tells a story of adventure,

of sleepy eyes counting falling

stars, reaching up to cradle the

crescent moon which holds

Venus gently in her belly.

The woods are more silent now

with the peepers gone

and fireflies tell of

nearby fields.
