She's Gone

a single owl screech breaks the silence, the Hunter's moon waxes blue ice chills the aging bones- blowing on the east wind flurries ,fine and dry settle on her grave.

Brian, I could go all kinds of ways with the interpertation of this one. From scary to very sad. Keep the creative pen flowing. Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my work.
