Burial On the Presidio Banks

The dark day has come As we stand on Presidio Banks We cry Towards the sea The waves Just... so grey The look on the faces So grave As we mourn the losses of today The songs start to play The oceans waves And we do the same We say our goodbyes Then look towards the sky As the darkness beings to face The clouds drift Like the cars pulling away But I stand knowing This is no dark day The days will fade And so will the years But not what I hold dear I will remember this day As a sight to be amazed Because I saw The burial on presidio banks

Such a sad poem, I can almost feel the chill of the salt air in my face. Well done. ~ Carrie
