The Grand Elm

By thingsfallingapart

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Beneath the grand elm lies dirt neatly piledon that very spot over there, where she smiledFrom branches above, birds buzz aplentyReminiscence of a guiding love ever so gentlySun flowers stalk an open fieldTo my wavering dreams, a close secret they will yieldEnliven me with your sweet sugared kissesIn the freshness of the open spring air, how it reminiscesBeneath the grand elm tree lies marble plantedWhere this love’s spark wrongfully abbreviatedSleeping eternity ever so peacefulfor a higher god ever ungrateful Written August 30th, 2001 © on Aug 30 2001 11:31 AM PST   0 • 1
