The great forgotten

25 November 2023  3:06 pm

Looking through the overgrown past
Leaning monuments built to last

Names and dates covered with lichen and moss
Beer cans and wrappers thoughtlessly tossed

Overturned stones and four wheeler tracks
Where once was bowed heads and old backs

Tears disrespected and sorrows mocked 
All because we got busy and then we forgot

Roll your eyes sneer if you want
But one day you will be in this spot

Life matters and so does death
Both should not be wasted and deserve our respect
