Marsh Graveyard

Brilliant morning light warms the dew

Your hard rocks surround the gentle tree of pale red

Within the garden, slowly eaten alive

Petals fall and lie like the dead

Old memories you refuse to hide

Falling softly where others have bled

A sea of mourning conceals with high tide

Nature has danced their dance since they wed

No need for epiphany, their spirit is known

Haunting the earth with beauty hidden

To their fate no one is forbidden.
