Notes About The Poem

06/28/25

Gate or Gates

Third Place

Contest by Constance La France

Gate of Grave Yard

     Gate of GODFORSAKEN  GRAVE yard made sound.
     A girl with GRIEF -STRICKEN face to enter.
     Her long dress of GOSSAMER touched the ground.
     She walked and reached almost at centre.

    It was Moonlit night : Her tears to glisten.
    She put flowers on the grave of her Mom.
    Her silent GROANING, only to listen
     by gate : Myriad of pain to fathom !
 
    GHOSTLY silhouette is displayed on sky
    The girl looked up above : Moon tends to hide !
    Gate of grave yard made sound again, but why ?
    The pet cat followed her and sat beside.

    Gate of the graveyard witnessed the event.
    The girl got her companion to lament.
