It is best to think on the bright side in such situations as death. There always is one.
The title is a strong choice, and the elegant lines did a good company too. Nice o nice_Soul
A brilliant write Lyn you set the scene so vividly, creating a serene feeling of been in a special place where people are at rest and their souls up above surrounded by God's love!
A fine descriptive poem of the landscape and the place and commemoration of the people and their lives now remembered at rest in such peaceful surrounds. Well written.
A beautiful poem Lyn, and certainly does not offend. A cemetery is a place of peace and memories, and you have captured that well here.
It's an absolutely magnificent poem! 10/10. While reading the poem, I was feeling as if I was sitting there! This is the success of a poet, to draw an imagery so spot on, that the readers just cannot but be with him/her. 'So as I sit here in peace surrounded by tombstones I do not think of the coffin, nor of the bones I think of these people that put their mark on this earth The History here, from today since birth' You have touched my heart with these lines, Lyn!
Death amidst life.....I get what you are saying here. Love it.
