Final Resting Places
O' to close our eyes
and see those who
spread the way before us.
Imagining their pain
and their tears;
their laughter
and their fears.
Bringing tears to our eyes
as we touch the gentle
petals of the single flower
pressed between worn pages
barely able to read.
Imagining the life
of the one that left her impression
for those to enjoy 100 years later!
