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.
