decorate our home this

ocellus
everywhere, trills
of the monsoon
bouncing off branches and
rocks
chestnuts
barely ping
water swollen ground
fluty birds remain blended
hidden
peacock
swallows hard
blue shining body
small lungs laboring hard;
grunts

Changing
the view.
Fresh green leaves
cover bare branches, hiding
horizons.

Cherry
blossom pompoms,
delicate lacy clusters
threaded along the branches,
rejoicing.

Blood
drying, red-
brown, curled edges
clinging to bone bare
branches.
