Scattered Petals

Scattered Petals

A Poem by Birdman313
"

The final resting place

"

 

 

Unlike flowers that bloom and die to scatter petals on the

ground,

Life's ashes will desend to the heavens to infinity

bounds.

Beneath a charity - less sky the dust of life

evaporates,

The graveyard space is all consumed and  generations co - operate.

Like flowers which unbloomed to

die,

Lay  petals scattered on the ground and

dry.

Where once the bodies lay

alone,

The renderings that remain of flesh and

bones.

The silhouettes de-ciphered by the pale light of the morning sun,

Reminding us we all shall die and fill the graveyard one by one.

Death is waiting for all of us..like the petals falling from a flower...I don't know how you made death beautiful but you did.

Birdman.......you seem to have a language of your own.......a very distinct enunciation.........I am not sure, but whatever it is....it works. I like it!
