    "The Place"

    An earthen abode,
    with margin design.
    For kindred that pass,
    archives of bloodline.
    Names of lineage,
    etched in stone.
    A garden enriched with,
    tears, blood, and bone.
    A verbal petition,
    reserves vacant space.
    Decendants are blessed,
    to rest at "The Place".

    What is left of life for the dying...is it thoughts of the grave and the coldness...or is it time left to do more smiling and warming of others. A well written picture of an ending, Corinna.....................gogant
