Sepulchered Memories

I roam through this pathway of life's gravesite The air is calm upon the rubblestone, Where buried reveries no longer stray For those who left a tired, embattled world. How they lay at rest unknown or unsung Decreed by time, wait in mercy of God, And medals pinned on this, this heroes' ground To sleep with glory, as only they can. Written 6/3/2019 Pick A Tile, Vol 5 - Verse Contest of Edward Ibeh ~Memorial Day Dedication
