Tag Archives: Grief

Stained ivory marble glimmers at the edge of the woods

Silent graves behind a rusty fence

Water murmurs in a nearby brook

So small So sweet So Young

A pool of minnows

A mother’s tears

Silver flashes of life

And a blanket of tangled vines, thorns, pink roses

Seek the sun and the angel

Roots curve lovingly around a box lined with satin in the cold earth below

Little bones

Buried in the cold earth below

And the sun sparkles on the brook which speaks softly, softly

A lullaby as it gentles on its way

Soothing the mother now resting next to her child

Buried in grief

Bones reach for bones

And the sun sparkles on the brook

Casting diamonds and tears across the surface

Warming the earth

Descending to the grave

Rising to the heavens
