See the snake slither
Coal black and crying
With tears cast for mother,
A lover or friend.
Up Larkill in drizzle
All coughing and shuffles,
The muffles of morning
All mourning the end.

Past the crowd gathering
For doffing and crosses,
Wailing a trail
For the preacher to mend.
Slow through the gates now
Mates solemn and knowing
Respects for the going
And a place for the grave.

I appreciate the "gravity" of the situation.

Morbid, morose ~ and cleverly scribed!

Love & Light,

I honestly thought this one would go by without a comment, thank you for proving me wrong.
