Tears of TimeA Poem by William Michael ReevesChardelle
Tears of Time
Above a garden where death does pardon lives now laid to rest in sleep's sublime eternal vigil, here stands an angel who's forever crying tears of time.
Grieved eyes discovered her beauty weathered, the harsh elements of life and death. Rain is Earth's refrain ~ effigies hear pain. Peace engraved her face with sorrow's breath.
Carved of graceful stone that knows nature's tone ~ monolithic songs departed sing. Their words are written, etched deep ... so listen. Granite resonates with life ~ takes wing!
