Ashen

Ambling by the ashen shore,

Dodging a diving bird of prey.

Difficult walking any more,

As the waves carry me away.

Remember

The sun disappears,

            Remember the moon phases,

                      All life one day ends.

Drizzle

Wind stirs through the trees,

            Rain clouds begin to drizzle,

                     Just a deceased fly.

Kit

How death blends into life,

Leaves fallen and mint grows.

A modern view of wildlife,

A kitten left alone.

In your position froze,

A stone, a lifeless clone,

Your mouth scarcely exposed,

Fur matted to the bone.

Knot

Tears in my eyes as you spoke,

Preparing for the onslaught,

Alone under the old oak,

So, I tie my lover’s knot.

Death of the Narrator

Farewell old Foe,

I knew thee well.

Farewell old Foe,

I can’t hear you.

Deep under earth, rot in your grave,

Maggots feast, your dust I shan’t save.

Scratch at the lid, splinter your nails,

Duty

Flowers wilt vainly in a blue vase,

Saving but a languished beauty.

Petals fall slowly to the base,

You whisper, Death is a duty.

Mother, forgive my sins,

My secrets meant unfound.

Transgressions haunt my kin,

Oh! My repent now crowned.

‘Twas dead! Buried in ground
