Sunlight
fading,
late
afternoon,
twilight time,
thick
woods, cold,
growing
colder, path
forgotten,
lost,
stepping
into fog, light
then
thickening, smells
wet,
decay, rot, new
growth,
muffled sounds,
then
amplified, muffled,
then
loud, near, then
silence,
deafening:
life.
This
poem was inspired by a discussion of the book of Ecclesiastes in the Bible.
