FIRST PLACE

 

After, the Cemetery

 
I travelled hours, hours and hours. The rusty ornate gate groaned, a path hued green moaned to me, as the trees whispered and wept. Then, I stood at that cold grave, of my loved ones deep engraved. After . . . I let my grief weep !

Constance, your choice of music is as sorrowfully lovely as your heart rending lines.
