The Sweet Sound Of Death Ii (A Quinate Senryu)
In the Aftermath,
There Was A Sound of Sad Peace,
A Silence of Death,
Rising o'er The Black-
O'Fields, Once Soft, Plush Meadow,
Now Square Holes dug deep.
Flowers Wilt in Mounds-
On Hills Upon Sacred Ground,
Death Lowered And Closed.
Twilight Casts Warm Light,
Umbra's on Cold Grey Arches,
And Steep White Crosses.
And, Then There's That Sound-
Breeze Coursing Through The Willows,
The Sweet Sound of Death.
