Someone sent this to me and I thought I would share. Vera

OH THE CEMETERY WHERE GREAT-GRANDFATHER LAYS
WITH MANY QUIET SOUNDS AND EARLY MORNING HAZE
MANY WAS THE TIME I LOOKED IN AWE
ALONG WITH MY DADDY AND MAW
AT THE MANY GRAVES IN NEAT LONG ROWS
SPRING WAS CLEANUP TIME WITH RAKES AND HOES
THEN CAME THE WHITE SAND AND FLOWERS
AND JUST FINISHING UP BEFORE THE EVENING SHOWERS
THAT WAS THE GOOD TIMES OF THE PAST
WHAT IS LEFT OF THE CEMETERY WILL NOT LAST
THE MEAN AND UGLY FUTURE IS CLOSING IN
THE NEAT OLD CEMETERY CANNOT WIN
NOW THE CEMETERY IS DESTROYED AND SAD
I COULD HAVE RECORDED IT, I WISH I HAD
