Silhouettes of Trees

Pink sky dark
trees rising three silhouetting against sky  pink 
sky
overhead

three trees rising
leaning 
paper cut-outs 
leaning 
black paper cut-outs on
pink pages

above 
wood fence running 
away
darker down to 
shed

breathing all in breathing 
self
in smoky 
air breathing self 
out 
into air

tree silhouettes breathing 
calmly 
silently

quiet

cat gliding 
noiselessly 

me-and-
ering 
cor-
ner darker 
disappearing
darker 
like breath along 
air
