I visualize this scene! This little girl must be enamored by the silence and serenity of the grave and probably one among her dear ones must be sleeping there! This poem has got a kind of eerie beauty!

There is no place so poetically realigning than a cemetery. Paradigms and perspectives all fall into place between the stones and epitaphs. A very enjoyable piece, and deftly rendered. Bravo. :)
