Cemetery
Tells a haunting darkness
To the graves & the boughs,
To relate mystic tales
To a night-wind that ploughs.
Tales which carry secrets
Now buried in the yard,
In tombs & mausoleums
Where shadows stand as guard.
Lest the dead tell mortals
Of such chronicles old,
And share this deep wisdom
Measured in terms of gold.
