Walking through
the park-like place
with
ornamental stones,
one finds a hole
a foot or so deep
and knows
the wooden lid
of a coffin fell!

Watch your step, as more and more coffins are biodegradable! You slyly note that cemeteries are in a way parks with pretty stones, especially when the departed mean little to you. But don't get too complacent! maybe one of them will grab you by the ankle.
Like the construct of this - a worthy write.
Well written. Congrats on being published. Have a Happy Holiday.
