Last walk in the woods
Autumns smokey aroma
swirling around me,
bathing me in vibrant hues
of scarlet and golden flax

The glacier slumbers
No crunch of snow underfoot,
no cracking seracs
The silently gliding wind
skims the glistening ice lake

Shadows of anxiety dimming mornings light
Fears of winters past blizzards
are stirred to awakenings

Icy driven sleet
pecks against the shuttered panes

Rafters moan under snows weight
Wind tortured chinked joints whimper

After storm silence
is gently nudged aside
Villagers' soft sighs
are much more felt than heard
The peaceful taiga returns
is gently nudged aside

The box was so light
An entire human life,
a few pounds of ash
On a desert path
I wove a trail of ashes,
a soft last farewell
