Night Visions

Twilight graveyard, solemn shadows

                             Shadow's tombstones, lined in silence

                                Silence, broken by cries of grief

                                Grief for the departed, love lost.

Tricky to do a visual justice in four lines, but you've pulled it off. Well done, Laura, and good luck. Viv x
