Into the calm oasis of yesterday I entered
walking thru a rendition of that far off field
Row upon row of lives and memories of loved ones
names forever remembered in stone
calm, serene, autumn beauty
city sounds removed
a touch of nature in the heart of the metropolis
golden bright days of autumn
reflecting thru the lily pond
No sadness for those who rest eternally
their sculptured resting places beauty to the eye
no information really,
only date of birth and date of death
just a few lines, nothing more
Yet sharing these few moments
a calmness prevails
and I leave as I entered
leaving only a trail of leaves
scattered along the path
Yet taking much more
the beauty to the eye
the silence I listened to
the inner sense of peace received.
