Cold Earth Slumber

Alex Arnot

Why is the crow doom's herald?

For all intended for ash, their peril.

On gravestone singing songs foreboding

To remnants lying in urn corroding.

All at rest beneath the soil

Tucked within the keepers toil.

Weary minds might sometimes envy

Those six feet deep who found their ending.
