The burning

logs burning in the fireplace

Pop, pop, crackle, pop,
sound of tiny hearts breaking:
trees felled for firewood.

Firewood

Green, black, red, pale white;
a colour every season,
trees are humanly.

Charity

Embracing us all,
gives to black, white, and between,
tree arms, alms to world.

Budding tree, a child— 
a little taller each day,
fleeting life, observe.

It’s a sign!

Earth, frozen in time
packs a crunch under my feet,
winter is coming.
