Moribund
The sad wakes leaving
Yes………… only petals of
A yellow tulip—pickled in a rose bed grieving
The loss of morning
The mortician's flower Strewn room sees
Roses bloom
And petal
Gaily
The river rides them
And the water dyes them
Black and Sadly its eyes
Are grimly weeping
Into the bank
Waking The bees to buzzing
