Scarlett Treat Poems

I have a secret,
One that has only
Appeared,
Right here in Public...
...

A tumbleweed is
A living thing.......but,
When it dies,
Breaking free of its earth ties,
...

Don't laugh at me,
You dark shadow!
Get behind me
Where you belong.
...

It is the fortune of poeple
that the shadows
of our futures do not
lie heavy
...

Did you forget me in the woods,
left with empties in a green trash can
with the screen on top?
...

When I die,
Oh, bury me, please,
'Neath the budding
Of Springtime's Weeping Willow Tree,
...

Tomorrow
The sun
Will burn away
The mist
...

She had a scarlet box,
In which she kept
Every single treasure
She ever owned...
...

Into the deepest night flow
Sweet words of love and happiness!
I can lie very still,
With your arms around me,
...

The house beside the road,
Where people lived
And children played,
Is empty now
...
