Unrequited Cinders
Tendered traces of fleeting mist
Wafting wisps fluttering into the abyss
Flittering glitter that sparkles then is carried away by the wind
Floating flakes that waffle then aimlessly descend
Token tufts of fog that shroud then wantonly ascend
Blowing grains of sand drifting in a listless direction
Puffs of smoke briefly inhaled then transforming into an ablation
Specks of dust swirling then falling quietly to the ground
Rays of light that dimly glow then fade into the background
Blissful sounds that softly echo then are drowned out
Warm vapors satiate the senses then rapidly find dispersal route
