At Rest

Where the bluebell carpet lies
Under green and silver trees,
Yellow primrose clusters guard
The place that no one sees.

Echoes of a gentler age
Now remote from days and hours,
This is where I visit you
Resting fragranced by the flowers.

Where the woodland hides your grave
Sunlit, stirring in the breeze,
Silver ash watch over you
As you rest among the trees.
