Emile Pinet Poet Quatrain

A White Silken Shroud

A silver sliver of crescent moon
slips over the rim of the Earth.

Sol waits, in inky darkness, as Dawn's light
pierces the night at its heart,
announcing His rebirth.

A pink carnation of a sun
blooms on the horizon's east edge.
And a spider's web, freshly spun,
hangs like netting draped on the hedge.

gold butterfly wings
wrapped in a white silken shroud...
life's eaten alive
