The Dead Along the River Speak to Me

I put this up on Kobo books last night. I decided to try Kobo instead of Kindle this time. And I can keep it up there fro free for as long as I want. Check it if you get a chance. Sample poem below the link.
The Dead Along the River
There are no bodies
in the ground.
Japanese cemeteries
contain only headstones.
On the gentle sweep
of the river bank Kami wander.
Small pink flowers fight
through frozen dirt.
A sudden explosion of color
amongst the black mud.
This afternoon snow
will cover all.
