cemetary's edge
















some days i choose to walk
beside the
gravestones

i find a comforting quiet
there
among autumn leaves
and carved inscriptions

i wish i could have known
the woman wise
whose headstone lies
before me now

"she did not try
to set others right
but listened,

loved

and understood
her fellow creatures"




*"Now abide faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love."  ~1Cor. 13:13
