Bereavement Poem
wooden floor
mourns the passing
of countless feet
one whole creature
with many legs
many legs
coming and going
this way and that
for a lifetime
the hollow sounds
and echoing footsteps
this hardwood floor
listens and feels
in bereavement
mourns the passing
of countless feet
one whole creature
with many legs
many legs
coming and going
this way and that
for a lifetime
the hollow sounds
and echoing footsteps
this hardwood floor
listens and feels
in bereavement
