A Lonely Grave

Roses wilted and rottened. Deadly silence broken by heavy rains. A lonely grave in the graveyard, Waited for a rose. Winds blowed, and skies changed., From blue to grey, It rained and snowed. A lonely grave in the graveyard Waited for an old friend to come. Hollow sounds, Frosty breeze. Every breath, A glimpse of distant hope. Perhaps, the time has come, For an old friend to visit, For a warm hand to fondle the soil. Perhaps, they'd leave a rose. A lonely grave in the graveyard, waited. But no more.
