Dusk

Winter fog slips

Silently

Trees rise as dark

Sentinels

The road is

Shortened

The intersection seems

Too hazy

Notice the dead

Gray rabbit

***** paws up on the

Curb

Pass this silent

Symbol

Cross over to the

Houses

Amber lanterns glow

Hazily

That familiar dusk

Has fallen

The amber dusk of

Long ago

Warm memories of amber lights

In fogs damp chill

You have to shiver while

Strangers peek out  of their

Windows

Snug warm people

They didn't see the

Rabbit

You must go back

Yesterdays memories

Warm to the bone

The rabbit needs to be

Buried

Somewhere in the deep dark

Woods
