My son for a lot reasons never really faced his grandmothers death, until he visited her Columbarium.


Columbarium

Polished granite face
Supplants her torpid form
Charcoal speckled engrave
Dates her post mortem

Wind whispers, do you hear?
Spoken with authority
Hello my dear
Vocal even in her sanctuary

Columbarium door glistens
With an image of still waters
The valley of deaths shadow requiem
Sings loudly as silent patters

While mortal grandson tears
Pleads goodbye in arrears
