Brush-swept revelations speak to communion
of spirits down deep in earth
where songs are no more than a hum
holy ~
hallowed ~
harrowing ~
How dear this face to face respite
against an unknown quiet death
held in petrified positions
I believe ~
You believed ~
We must believe ~
at cellular level
a resurrection
will find them then, as now
you ~
us ~
any lovers ~
I hear a lullaby of lovers
longing for near or gone-by time
when wings release heavy weight of earth.
Author notes
This picture sunk nto my heart and settled there, as longing, and a litergy of "soon"

A very intricate and loving piece you have penned, dear poet. I really enjoyed your three line, one, two, or three word breaks in between. They really added that extra emotion and related the reader to what the once-humans had felt during their life.
