BELOW THE GROUND
Below the ground a sound is stirring
dead people's thoughts re - occurring
they wonder why their lives were ended
with so much left unattended
and why they had to give up the ghost
ending up as rot or toast
but life goes on, so hush you souls
dwelling deep with worms and moles
the answer lies inside the soil
the results of endless earthly toil.

Thanks David, Tony and Stu for commenting on this grim piece. These thoughts gain significance at a later age!
If we poets can't find an answer, who the hell can?
