on the way to next world

People awed
in leafy passings
a tree has fallen
consumed from within
it once stood tall
gave its shade
then snapped
on an August day

Twitch of a twig
break of a branch
snap of sinews
limbs raised
then in leafy passings
what once stood
is collected
woody mass
unprotected
snap in the wind
a day has come
when crowns dip
to duck ponds
what are ones chances
to witness
a tree crack?
so others mature
inexorably
reach great heights
towards summer cracks
or winter snaps
