coarsen graves...
the blistering afternoon sun
baking the boquets
ontop of them
left as lifeless as
those they were placed
to pay homage to

There must be a poem in here somewhere.

Flowers bloom and die - humans are born but sadly sometimes never "bloom". I don't think we ever really die but certainly the flesh does. OK - now to get my mind off graves but all part of life and one needs to think on everything.
