Insignificant Woman

No eyes followed her coffin
to the end of the road
Only a memory of a lifeless form
passing in some lane…
A moon mourned in silence.

    reads like a haiku in its brevity, visuals and emotions. Five supreme lines charged with quietness; leaves me pondering why her coffin was carried in moonlight. Unloved, probably placed in a common pine box...sad.
