Full circle

Trees cleansing themselves
shed dead skin and dry blossoms
retrieve life through death.

photo of gravestones amidst colourful flowers, Adelaide

A good place to die—
with flowers and company,
a good place to live.

All parties must end—
when music stops, lights go off;
just a pile of bones.

Peace

Come my time to sleep
may the snakes slither slightly
