Eerily haunting breeze blows
amid turning leaves in gleaning
backwoods left behind deserted
from towns heady abandonment
for what seeming deemed to be
of waste

Just enough standing tall provoking
one of something yet that we want
to feel of this unsung mystery
lurking in the middle of paths to
nowhere and everywhere

Questioning ghostly rustle in the
air revealing a sign that we are
not as committed to a future as
believed for the lost and forsaken
remain making it known that voices
have yet to be heard

For their sake of tranquility my
thoughts are in remembering those
who passed this way should not be forgotten for sacrifices in our
past in order to rest in peace
today
