Early Morning
Early morning,
The smell of autumn fills the air.
A light frost has covered the ground,
And it is silent as only that time
Of the day can be.
A soft breeze rustles the multicolored leaves,
Shaking some loose to float
Lazily to the earth below.
One falls onto her skin,
Perfect and white in its stillness,
Frost glitters like diamond dust
Upon her eye lashes
Eyes, wide open and staring into the sky,
Unseeing
If you look deep enough into those eyes
You may see,
Just a glimmer of something,
And you ask yourself
If it might be the image of her last thoughts
Before life left her
To lay so perfect in her stillness,
As she never did in life.
