Testimony

Topics: classic

When snow falls, there lives     the shrill cries that     leaves are not alone.     Each flake, a mute testimony     not a leaf falls before     surgery prunes the individual tree.     Cold November after     brown and white conspire,     the forest leaves a bleeding crust,     scar tissue from natural wars.
