your life in the sunflowers
fading sunflowers, having given their worth
hang heads down so sadly upon residual dearth
a frieze of past life in the dust of this land
painted emotions untouched by love’s hand
azure of the background, still beauty, surprised
of embryo packages nocturne lyophilized
asleep with the moissanite glories suspended
spill loose of the secrets, tell life is not ended
smiling caresses to take all your futures, delight
with this prize comes the howling, the beast in the night
as lost from the safe gentle clutches they fall
but dust comes, a covering, again to hide all
the fiend gone, the sun now, warm rain on a womb
somehow no longer interpreted tomb
designed by the eons, perhaps a sojourn
look up to the painting, look up, they return
