Description
Cemetery's
Towering monolith tombstones
Where the dead spend their night
For those who have reached
and found
Eternal rest...
Where at night
The sky is a pearl of stars
And the moon inudates the world
By a silver light
The trees are silent
As they too sense the sadness
Where the strong and weak are both equal
through a veil of tears
Where there is only silence
Eternal rest~
Resting in the shadows of time
No more pain,nor sorrow
They have reached and found
rest...
For they are dead...You are alive
And it is no occasion for tears
Just eternal quiescent rest~
Rows and rows of tombstones shine
Luminously under the glow of full moon
Over the many graves
All of those lives once lived
Now lost from our world
For after all their journeys on earth
Laying my hand on one headstone
One out of many...
The wind picks up with a slight breeze
As if to warn me it's time to part
These sepulchral hills
Among crosses and marble angels~
Shadows and sunshine
Petals and tears
Eulogies and regets
As souls their rest
For they are home
In the scenic cemtery~
( This is an older poem from another site I belong too, I thought if sort of fitting for All Hallow's Eve) Happy Halloween to my friends here on RR

Most excellent poem Susan. Just right for the season. Hope your halloween was a good one and everyone's doing well. Dave :^)
Since we are eternal, death is but a door to greater life and service to all LIFE. I fear not death, you see, for I have died 4 times in this life and was allowed to come back, so that I may serve any who would listen to the Call of Eternity, the Immortal Life is full of Cosmic Service, and I one of its servants. my best to you always, Lightpen
Sending my deepest condolences to you Susan on your recent loss. Your gallery is a delight and your wordsmithing suits your images beautifully. Hope you are able to find your sense of balance again soon... these events take some time to work through . i will hold you in my special prayers...
