His burial came in the spring
When his body became the seasons
So in the fall you could feel
Him weaving in the air
And you could almost sense him
In the dead leaves lifting
Almost palpable where the last
Flowers embrace the first frost
In love with the earth
As he had always been
I have watched him stand
For hours in a shorn field
His thoughts so still and magical
Even if only in my mind
