Bare Trees (Eliot Cardinaux)

 

Bare Trees



Is it you that I search for
as you watch me
(and will I ever find)
but questions

Bare trees
purple in the snow

And there are some
that will go
into the deep halls
without expecting

and some silence
others still
will hold forever in their hands

But you who will
spite the echo
have far fewer hands
and left them there,

like water
through water,
both sides;
it stands.
