Talking To the Stones

There are so many paces talking to the stones
The greatest counselors are the ones made of bones
The flowers in this garden couldn't possibly be any fresher
Here in lies, the answers given without undue pressure
Various degrees of experience given by souls of all ages
Their final class pictures were found in obituary pages
A final remembrance of all a somber one
Beloved father, mother, sister, or son

I had to read twice once I got the picture. Very good! Love the line: The greatest counselors are the ones made of bones. Still, I don’t have that…my mom’s in an urn…so strange….different than I would have imagined. A large picture beside her beautiful purple resting place. My Dad talks to her all the time…I just miss her.
