Decorate The Dead
Atop a cold breeze,
Jack Frost inks the trees.
etching pigments on each leaf;
orange, gold, and red,
decorate the dead;
in colors beyond belief.
It's silent at dawn;
the songbirds have gone.

If I Could Decorate Your Soul
If I could decorate,
Your soul,
Like a Matisse painting,
To caress it,
With bliss,
Love,
And vibrancies,
Through the weary days,
Kiss your love,
With bright, lovely flowers,

As innately as you are,
Innately as a lilly,
Combing your silhouette,
And hair,
With the sweet vibrancies,
Of moonlight

Mom stood still and let those mutts decorate her coat and all.
You would have thought she was their personal porcelain doll.
Mama tree! The mama tree! They barked. Come play! It’s free! It’s free!

The Wind Chime
A wind chime decorates the window
A wind chime welcoming the wind
The wind and the wind chime meet
They whisper to each other
Just like a mother whispering to his children
And the children always remember her words
Resembling that of a wind chime
Just like a mother waiting for their children
To come back bustling one day
And a mother always

Lets Decorate the Trex
Let’s decorate the T-Rex said a little boy in a scream.
Tree-Rex nearly came right off the bed in his dream.
Was the child saying that he did not already look great?
He gnashed his teeth, thinking of that child’s new fate.

to lighten the whole world,
But I am just a firefly

Time To Decorate
The tree
in the corner,
a wreath put on the door.
A Christmas elf sits on the shelf
keeping an eye out for family to come.
Everything there to set the mood,
another way to say,
Have a Merry
Christmas!

To cry. The trees won't weep for me.

A thousand tears, and my kingdom drowns.

Dew Decorate Me
I have the want but not the means
To cry, and so I let the trees
Well up for me, then shiver down
A thousand jewels for a tear soaked crown.
