Cemetery Poem by rosalinda flores martinez

Cemetery

Rating: 5.0


Darkness paints empty spaces

Tombs white as snow,

Angels flying among the crosses

Burning candles, flames aglow.

Bones on the earth

Ivory pearls rebirth

Swinging palms to freedom,

Glowing blessed kingdom

Completely to merge

In hues of yellow-orange dusk.

I was curious about the title, I thought it was horror or something frightening. Upon reading the lines I was impressed, it wasn't horrible as I thought but it was something lovable and even let you remember all souls day or all saints day this coming Nov. Good write...10+

Cemeteries are usually spooky places, you have made them with your well chosen words, places of beauty and hope of yet future lives. Lovely wording, great poem.
