where ‘midst these markers lay –
How lonely are the steps between
the graves of those I walk today –
How peaceful is the summer corn
around this church’s graveyard stands.
How steadfast this emotion seems
When pen’d from living hands –
At rest and peace I find thee,
silent ‘neath the clustered trees –
With truth and love I bless thee,
while praying from my knees!
Stunning, I felt all my loved ones that have past & also a sense of mortality. This was beautiful & very moving my love. Thank you.
Very touching! Thank you for sharing.
