Cerise leaves fall in Autumn
Creating leaf pile
Recalling a past child play
When innocence was not stained

Awaiting to be snuggled 
They give it their all
to be very comfortable
But lingering heat kills it.

An array of colors were seen,
Like unto prismatic stained glass.
I saw it start to approach and
Watched to grow.

Gnarled hands stained by carbon seams
Harsh life etched into burning eyes
Yet tenderness turned wood
In delicate designs declaring devotion.

May your pain erode you alike the touch of stagnation upon a rotting corpse- akin to a wilted rose stained with the stench of fear & longing.

in the stained moments of day 
Windswept disarray!
Fuchsia passion spreads for miles
Fetching jays and sunshine smiles.
