the send-off
the fragrance of flowers
gently touched
by the cemetery breeze
celebrate the silence
of life being released
the colors of nature
gather around
that piece of earth
cradling every moment
of time since birth
dark figures fade out
with memories
replaying in their heads
as the day ends, yet again
death is fed

IMO - a touch of splendour in thoughts beautifully considered and words artfully expressed.
