The branches are bare

the wind

has whisked away

any remaining leaves

what’s left behind is

a ballet of dancers

with limbs stretched out in

a choreographed stillness

The silence is their melody

I am their spectator

This piece was inspired while I was sitting in the garden watching the trees sway with the wind.
