Autumn rose...too soon
withered from the blooming bush
observe broken stem

spilled blood flow
like raging rivers
absorbed into soil
transfusing …nourishing
withered roots

Withered as time passed
soon young and green sprouts
leaves live here freshen us up
any sizes any colors
follow the cycle of life.

a tree may stand strong
its top can kiss the skies
the stem too big to image
but down there unseen
its roots’ ends are withered

No one cared about poor Jack
cut and carved from front to back
his pulp made pie
seeds left to dry
he became a withered wrack

Rose
Unfolds
Revealing
Withered petals
Within inner core
Water with love
The flower

He sought revenge through fire
Over a withered mortal’s true path.
Patience slithered in his desire
To not avenge, but to bring wrath.

the tree, bare
in mid-summer
branches withered
bark peeling
a condemned sigh
rustled through
her brittle leaves
I had to look away

Dead leaves in a pond...
a withered silence surrounds...
winter approaches.
Melancholy stirs within...
storm cloud mirrors somber mood.

A wild flower child
Was so careless for short while.
Then so suddenly
Something broke her lovely smile;
Withered through a fate so vile.

Languid eyes surf the horizon
Bites hot the suntanned light
Drowning the parched azure ocean
Beyond the withered shore

The white jasmine is blooming,
Withered was the yellow wintersweet
Time walks in weald,
Is it empty in her heart?

who mightn't pass for half his age,
bloody thinks that he can rage,

What explains Trumpenstein’s command
That the U.S. borders expand?
His withered small shaft
Needs a bigger graft
Of mastodon parts from Greenland

Sighs and tears escaped
From an enamored couple
When both realized
Love had withered forever
Lacking of fertilizers

SEASON REVEILLE
The chill’ed land sleeps
Grass withered dried and flaxen
Life wisely cautious
Awaits the vernal signal
Then will it stir and flourish

Torned to a millions pieces many times,
Like a soldier in Vietnam fought with toes and nails,
Now my soul have retreated,
My fighting spirit have withered

There once was a pretty pumpkin
Grown purposely for consumption.
Snatched from its cozy home
It was brutally cloned
And now sits withered and shrunken.

Waiting to quench thirst
Drying every single day
Withered by slackness
A cactus in the desert
Until one day blooms again
