I returned for bird song
and the glimmer of grass adorned
in evening light,for cool whispers carried
on ancient winds and the eternal fragrance
of molasses,pine,or sliced cucumber.
Instead,I beheld the silent
dilapidated farmhouse sink into a grave
yard,winter's first icy fingers already
undressing everything.
