Unknown Souls

Dave poet

 

         Unknown Souls

 

 

Fallen shrubs spiders web

 

Writing fades each day

 

Unknown souls buried deep

 

Their memories slip away

 

 

Stones tilted, earth subsides

 

Mist comes crawling in

 

Forgotten names laying cold

 

In caskets deep within

 

 

Within the walls made of stone

 

Stand trees so great and bold

 

No chapel stands inside these grounds

 

To tell of these souls of old

  • Comment from author about the poem: I lived around 400 metres from a graveyard and I was saddened by the obvious loss of care for these souls graves. Some were over 70 years old, lost family links.
