when Pearl passed
I placed on her  tombstone 
an old pair of bone dice 
and a short prayer
maybe she’ll get lucky...

Graveside Service - a Shadorma
Forsaken,
weather beaten sign,
your tombstone.
Nameless soul,
the Savior knows who you are.

Sadly Funny
Timmy Tombstone died today.
Gone with nothing left to say.
Some say it's best.
Now he can rest.
Some limericks are just grey. :)...

No Witness
No living witness to The Truth
None has died, returned to testify.
Each his day, back to the root
Tombstone a memory beneath which to sigh....

And fell down this slope
Where their grave simply reads, "Remorse"....

Tombstone - Like the Four Horsemen
they walked along
weathered, carrying their guns;
like the four horsemen…

down to the O.K.
guns blazing, bullets flying;
smoke clears, the strong stand…...

There once was a man from Armenia
Who stuffed his belly with garcinia
  His head in a daze
  His eyes looked all crazed
The tombstone read, 'Died of Anemia'...
