CYPRESSES



CYPRESSES

I WILL PAINT YOU A PICTURE ADELINE
OF FRIENDS OUT FOR A WALK
PAST TREES ALIVE AS IF ON FIRE
UNDER CLOUDS THAT ONLY COOL
BUT DO NOT DARKEN
PAST A HOUSE WHERE MEMORY DWELLS
WARM…RELAXED…A FAMILY KITCHEN
THE GOOD…THE SORROW
THE INTERWEAVING THREADS THAT MAKE A HOME
AND THE TREES
OLDER THAN ALL TIME
WILL RUSTLE WITH DELIGHT
AS FRIENDS GO BY
TALKING ABOUT THE WEATHER
