A Special Place

The old tree has long been felled,
And you  need to know the ground
To find  the last few signs of
Sunken family grave mounds.
The graveyard is now full
And it was thought for the best
To find...

rearing and...

He Tended Her Garden

Her spirit lived in the garden's bright blooms.
Tended with a solemn vow that he'd kept.
Their scent reminded him of her perfumes.
While planting, his sad heart mournfully wept.

Tended with a solemn vow that he'd kept,
Although years...

The Garden Seat

just like their love of fifty years
that they held very dear
the lilies and the irises
