Grow the ancient boreal midnight mountain
reaching rooted primacy given taken
glorious prayer

Now naked skeletal lone
Whilst Autumns golds drift

of a skeletal oak tree

gold autumn leaves cling
to blackened skeletal trees
winter’s first snow melts

slab of smokey concrete sky
swirls like swarms of ashen hands
reaching away from skeletal grief
someone's suppressed tears dissolved
~another's anguish ignited

Darkness steals away the light of day.
The trees stripped of their cover
stand in skeletal remains.
Crisp cold breezes bear the pains
of the dead and weakened souls.

I do not know?
Large skeletal hand
Holds the great headless horseman’s
Head, a huge carved gourd
A pumpkin that glows within
For all of Halloween night

Soul trapped in paradise, broken like statues,
bleached out like skeletal structures on sandstone.
Helena's pastries, warm honey skin,
a blanket to smooth back the shape that you're in...

Leafed to be reft
Ashen greys in bleak surround
Cover of night dies
It's stillness, in cry, out loud
My life, will be skeletal

My life, in darkness
Skeletal trees silhouette
Decaying, left and right
I shuffle through the fallen
My light, soon to be consumed

Taking out my heart
From the skeletal debris
Great minds never die -
Providing blood from you dears
Those who love and never lie

Skeletal once stately oak
Leaves changed their glossy color
Slowly then they fell 'pon ground
Final blow nuts gone

Wailing winds warn Winter’s nigh
rattling the skeletal trees,
as flurries of flakes hail Her,
befitting a Queen.

The skeletal dome,?
a ghost of Hiroshima's pain,?
stands against the sky.
A child's hand,?
small and delicate,?
traces the curve of a crane.
Paper wings unfold,
?a fragile hope,
?a plea for peace.

The Star Magnolia's fourteen blossoms
Stark against winter's dead flowers
Skeletal stand pear, fig, rose
Oh! Rose 'pon trellis dead_
Or so it seems, now
Deep within earth
Roots draw strength
Revive
Live

Lacerate the boils from resplendent shades.
The skeletal wolves tremble from nose to tail.
Vomit soaked in blinded lips.
I echo the thoughts of a maniac.
But they differ greatly.
For I am more or less humane.

Trump Skeletal Remains
Only thing left of Trump were skeletal remains,
And all water had washed away on his brains;
Disappearing act,
A proven fact;
The same thing also goes for his blood stains.

Sun-tried tulips
Dried daffodils
Cold cardinals
Skeletal swans
Pupa in pulsation
Birds in migration
Deer in separation
Winter vegetation
Each
And every such
Are tested
And tried
Towards
Resurrection
