The Cemetery Today

A 
Visit
Today to
Cemetery
Father's Day no dad
To talk to and share thoughts
Too hot to stay and visit
The grave was in good shape weed free
Mother's parents and grandparents' graves
Need the grass pulled out and tending some...Sad

A very nice poem but I don't under most of the new versions of poetry. I am just to old to change I guess. God Bless, Cile
