Buried Flowers
Buried flowers burning in deep
Converting coal to precious stones
Gems now forever gone to sleep
That were once life and wreath of thrones
Verse those alive
Death values life
Buried flowers as the tears seep
Through pile of earth into the bones
Of those not dead but left to weep
in echoes of pain and hushed frowns
Seem miles apart
yet deep in heart...
