Through the windows, her reflection
floating over garden gate.
Through the screen, bugs were flitting
on their way to here and gone.
Through the trees, the moon was sending
white lantern light without need of match.
Through the door, her head was resting.
The night fell gray around the latch.

She said burn ... together.

Feh, I tried to squeeze waaay too much into the meter, making the whole poem unstable. But ah'm glad you enjoyed our race. Now to read yrs.

She said burn ... together.
