living elderly–
watching the sunset
pinpoint the stars

living elderly–
autumn falls
in the hearing of leaves

living elderly–
dust to dust
moved about the house

living elderly–
the return of my breath
to the nearness of trees

living elderly–
in the breath of
the nearness of trees

living elderly–
white-gloved
in her Sunday pew

living elderly–
powering the pot plants
the moon moves on

living elderly–
the older songs
with all the words I know

living elderly–
stirred in the cups of tea
a leaf of mint

living elderly–
‘a spring thaw’
I whisper to the dog
