The light
At the end
Of the dock
Casts a pale glow
Over frozen water

There is
A wooden boat
Missing its oars
Up on the bank
Under a cover
Of snow

Occasionally
One will see
A line of deer
Slowly
Making its way
Among the distant trees

They pass in silence
Much like life
After a number of years

With nothing left to say

I could almost hear the silence at the end
of this write.

Nice one.

It takes a true poet to describe that awkward silence at the end of life whan your ticket has expired.
