With pen affixed,
Of death, she wrote
The exit sign ablaze.

A crucifix
Upon her neck
The visage in her gaze.


The wintry world
of fallen trees
And woes for which they were
Caress the snow,
As vineyards grow
Appendages to her.


The ember youth
Seclude the night
Entombed beneath the tears
Within the wax
The waning moon
That cast away her fears.


The hollowed oak
that meets the bone
will serenade the sky
She never was
at such a peace;
For this is how trees die.
