upon the breeze

Upon the breeze, a tiny frame,

wings still, a fading, gilded name.

Sweet nectar’s longing, tongue outstretched,

a final sip, a world detached.

Within frail petals, softly laid,

a garden vigil, gently swayed.

The sun descends, a crimson stain,

earth claims her own, in soft, sweet rain.
