within the depths
of aging hearts –
are memories of love
though some a ways have gone
and paths grown thick
so few without
a name recalled –
for where they sleep (I wonder)
with pieces of my past
to resurrect –
in stillness now
a soldier lies
beside a fallen angel
while rows of plastic roses
grieve them gone
wherever grace be given
their silence warms the breeze
a kiss to seal
(stories left untold)
forgiven me
these rites of life –
might I their voices carry
o’er words another saved
of times to tell
bring them back
with tears of truth –
midnight recollection
of places come to light
within my own
let not them rest uneasy
or music be denied
a place to play
beyond the moss –
where lies eternal love
