The Lullaby Tomb

i gently embrace the tomb singing a lullaby, softly whisper farewell to the ashes and bones- mossy vines creep and apparitions cry, for death is none but a cage of cyclones; now the light shall shine in brilliant tones. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ December 29, 2019 Writing Prompt- English Quintain Imagery - Poetry Contest Sponsor, Dear Heart
