A THOUGHT

 

A quiet sip of orange juice

Just a vague thought, sometimes not

Obituary posters on street light poles

and tree barks

the old and young in their best

I notice the flowers withering

Few seconds of panic before

The vault is sealed

What’s that? An extra blanket

for winter

High-voltage metro lines and artistic roads

The final round of safety check

uprooting commences

An obituary for a tree in the weekly

I notice the flowers but can’t see them

a musing

Such a pretty house and

such a pretty garden.
