Kim Rodrigues Poet Triolet

Disquieting Momento

DISQUIETING MEMENTO

Lone leaf upon the earth is red,
amidst the mountain’s grief of dust.

A civil war sent boys to bed.
Lone leaf upon the earth is red.

“War is hell,” the old have said.
 Why does it steal the youth, robust?

Amidst the mountain’s grief of dust,
Lone leaf upon the earth is red.
