Standing in the breeze
dying crocuses, glorious
in our backyard, the
grasses,
glorious in their fading
becoming translucent,
afire in the mid-day sun
Like rice paper blossoms
a film, becoming transparent
as if made of thin phyllo
dough
dying ever so graciously
afire in their dying,
glorious
at the foot of your cross
