Another fine poem, Gypsy....and I like the way you mixed the physical with the spiritual. A great poetic description of what we all deal with, sooner or hopefully later, much later, but a certainty none the less

This painted a beautiful and darkly romantic vision. I love when a cemetery has trees and shade. It makes you feel at peace . Beautifully written. Gretchen

I've been to cemeteries, especially in the southern states that have cypress trees in cemeteries. They do give a hint of sadness and set the emotion very well. I enjoyed this entire presentation.

I was told by my grandmother cypress trees point to heaven and that's why they are in cemeteries.
Thank you very much, Barbara 😊

Such effective use of language here - a minimum of words portraying an expanse of human grief where death and life collide beneath these 'cemetery cypresses.'

I would think all the mourners who came to the cemetery would project their grief onto everything they saw, including the cypresses. Good way to show how grief changes our perception.

Comment from Michael Ludwinder
I thought this was well done. With just three lines and a limited number of syllables you paint a sad picture so well. I thought the entire presentation of your poem was excellent from the colors to the image and of course the words.
