    white noise will send you round the bend if you aint careful .. but then again, so can manicured lawns ..

    • arqios

      That's probably why we generally limit our visits to the cemetery, kind of like a spiritual white noise.

      Good write CB.
      Ohh, I love the white noise - when KP's gone. Can't stand her nagging! lol.

      • arqios

        White noise here is used as a descriptive of that static like noise at the cemetery usually broken by an insect call or some sort of other noise.

        • orchidee

          Ahh, I see. 'Grasshopper he say,.....' (insect call). lol.
          I've been inside some quiet churches where the silence is 'deafening' and painful even to the ears.

          My father was a veteran of WWII, and both he and my mother are buried in our National Cemetery. Your words so aptly describe the feeling I get when I visit. Standing by their gravesite, looking out over thousands of gravestones, all identical, there is a peace and symmetry like no where else, your "white noise" where memories flutter about like moths. Beautiful dear poet!

            Thanks Bella. It's quite a feeling of neither here nor there at gravesites.

            thank you
