Ephemeral Evergreens

[gray_ghost710]

Ephemeral evergreens
Cast in dusks shadow
I see them in all places.
Shutting my eyes
And opening them
They are gone
There is only
The scorching beauty
Of the sun.
And how I long
To keep my eyes open
But I see them once more
The ephemeral evergreens
Of another shore.
As a silent tear
Slides down my cheek
Someone asks me
Why I greave
