Eternal rest...
'Autumn rain
a woeful tune
is playing'
about those
who have passed away
and those left behind
with memories
reminiscing and longing
autumn rain
autumn
envelopes crosses
covered in
yellowed leaves
embraces them in mist
and they become mystery
the mystery of eternity
November rain is falling
on the memories
of those
who have passed on
to their eternal resting
place
it shields them with fog
but uncovers them
to their beloved
who light a candle
and pray
'Eternal rest grant onto them...'
