The earth trembled with words spoken in hush
when quakes erupted quietly throughout
acres of land lightning loudly awakened
within full view for all to witness
as mouth lay agape.
Land connected, speechless to spell
cast on soil turned silent
from fingers in search of another
to hold with firm grasp,
not letting go.
Skies darkened, skewered the horizon
while light pierced to bring peace
also allow path for Spirit to walk,
continue on its journey with integrity.
North and South joined at juncture,
brought blessings to spread wealth
over those retired who rested eternally
six feet underneath earth's blanket.
Sunflowers laid atop with love
amidst thunderous thoughts in distance
where electric empathy sighted
behind numerous clouds of condolences.
Shadows lingered longer than anticipated
but left bouquet to flourish
in private patches on emerald quilt
where breath of life ceased to exhale.

Holy smokes girl!!!!! What a read this one is! As I have said before I help care for cemetaries in town, and well I know what you mean, I see some with new flowers placed and planted by loved ones, and some that nothing ever changes on..... If it weren't for Mother Nature, and those of us that mow the grass there, they would have nothing..... Such a shame.
