Tree lined lane
Row of houses green
Celebration of a now gone holiday
Stop sign at a crossroads
Home remaining
Or journey taking?
Two country roads meet
One, a dead end
The other, a loop
Both going nowhere
Turn around
Turn around
Go the other way
Pile of leaves and stones
Mixed with trash
Ought not be
Fire rages
Bright orange
Comfort?
Warmth?
No, trash disposed
Curving around
House for sale
Grounded boat
Cannot float
Holey hull
Fireplug in the woods
Hidden source of power
Chewed out post
Unseen pest
Not the only one
Water trickles
Barely flows
Where do you think it goes?
No one knows
Smoke over water
Presence over people
Flowing, flowing
Going together
Dead tree by water’s edge
Clinging to life
Hope against hope
Crisp leaves underfoot
Crunch, crunch, splunch!
Oops, found a puddle
