Everything up to that moment, wed reference in the Sequoia gift shop.
Fallen Tree
By Tyler Lucas Mobley
You waited for our company
the lucky couple you chose to
share your last moments with.
Passing unsuspected you give
notice, call our attention to
your final act. We turn to the
sound in the silence to follow.
You say goodbye with a tender
timber, your sparse tip comes
to rest in the fork of another,
caught by lovers branch.
Your rings given to us as the
sound we will hear forever.
