Renewal


Flowers grow here

Small white blossoms amongst the grave markers

Blooms hold their breath, expectant

A preacher's voice, a low murmur

Choked sobs beneath dark umbrellas

Drowned in the rainstorm

A single rose tossed into the muddy grave

Elegance entombed in the earth eternally

Flowers grow here
